Makefile, docs/manual, support, toolchain: remove Eclipse integration

Browse Source 
Back many years ago, we developed an Eclipse plugin that simplified
the usage of Buildroot toolchains. Enabling the BR2_ECLIPSE_REGISTER=y
was registering the Buildroot toolchain into a special file in your
HOME folder that the Eclipse plugin would recognize to allow to
directly use the Buildroot cross-compiler.

This Eclipse plugin has not been maintained for years. The last commit
in the repository dates back from September 2017. Since then Eclipse
has moved on, and the plugin is no longer compatible with current
versions of Eclipse.

Also, Eclipse is probably no longer that widely used in the embedded
Linux space, as other more modern IDEs have become more popular.

All in all, it's time to say good bye to this Eclipse integration.

The Buildroot integration with the Eclipse IDE has been
