docs/manual: remove references to largefile

Browse Source 
Switch from the ACL package example to RRDTOOL since ACL has no dual
(depends + select) dependencies any more and doesn't fit the example
scenario.

* Change the version of the GCC compiler, binutils and the C library.
* Select a number of toolchain options (uClibc only): whether the
toolchain should have largefile support (i.e. support for files
larger than 2 GB on 32 bits systems), IPv6 support, RPC support
(used mainly for NFS), wide-char support, locale support (for
internationalization), C++ support or thread support. Depending on
which options you choose, the number of userspace applications and
libraries visible in Buildroot menus will change: many applications
and libraries require certain toolchain options to be enabled. Most
packages show a comment when a certain toolchain option is required
to be able to enable those packages. If needed, you can further
refine the uClibc configuration by running +make
uclibc-menuconfig+. Note however that all packages in Buildroot are
tested against the default uClibc configuration bundled in
Buildroot: if you deviate from this configuration by removing
features from uClibc, some packages may no longer build.

external toolchain uses the 'glibc' library, you only have to tell
whether your toolchain supports C\++ or not and whether it has
built-in RPC support. If your external toolchain uses the 'uClibc'
library, then you have to tell Buildroot if it supports largefile,
IPv6, RPC, wide-char, locale, program invocation, threads and
library, then you have to tell Buildroot if it supports IPv6,
RPC, wide-char, locale, program invocation, threads and

the selected options do not match the toolchain configuration.
