This patch updates the default toolchain used for runtime tests. The
last time this toolchain was updated was in commit
0207a65323 3 years ago. Since then,
multiple things have changed:
Firstly, it used uclibc-ng as the libc whereas since commit
4057e36ca9, glibc is used as the default
library.
And secondly, since commit 531b2a10cd, buildroot
dropped the support for gcc 8 and it cannot be built internally anymore.
So the testsuite was executed using a toolchain that can't be built by
the Buildroot internal toolchain backend anymore.
This new Bootlin toolchain stable 2022.08-1 is based on gcc 11.3.0,
linux headers 4.9.327, glibc 2.35 and binutils 2.38.
The previous toolchain bleeding edge 2018.11-1 is based on gcc 8.2.0,
linux headers 4.14.80, uclibc 1.0.30 and binutils 2.31.1
Nowadays Bootlin toolchains are packaged in Buildroot and we can
directly select them from BASIC_TOOLCHAIN_CONFIG and avoid
setting the toolchain parameters (BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_CUSTOM...).
The switch to Glibc requires to update some tests for the following
reasons:
- TestPython3Py, TestPython3Pyc and TestPython3PyPyc has been updated
since they use the libc binary file name in their test
(uClibc: libc.so.1 vs Glibc: libc.so.6).
- TestTmux needs at least one locale to pass (as stated in tmux help
text "tmux needs a working UTF-8 locale"), so use "C.UTF-8".
- TestOpenSsh needs a toolchain >= 5.x due to a openssh issue
(Similar to: https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=13671)
Use the Bootlin toolchain bleeding-edge 2022.08-1 rhat provide
kernel headers 5.4
- TestShadow needs a toolchain >= 4.14
Use the Bootlin toolchain bleeding-edge 2022.08-1 rhat provide
kernel headers 5.4
Runtime tested on the gcc farm server.

Switch from the Buildroot internal toolchain for armv5 to
the prebuilt Bootlin external toolchain.
The test doesn't require to build a toolchain, there was
no prebuilt glibc toolchain recent enough at the time this
test has been introduced.

The BRTest() class implements an assertRunOk() method that does the
very common work of running a command inside the emulator, and
checking that it is successful.
This commit changes all locations where this .assertRunOk() method can
be used, instead of open-coding the same logic.

When it was applied, commit 243d500f8d (support/testing: add openssh
runtime test) was amended to not provide a NIC to the emulated machine,
as the test did not require access to the outer world: it only uses the
lo interface. Also, there was a discrepancy between the NIC name in the
Buildroot configuration, and the drivers available in our default kernel
image, making the boot hang for a while whaiting for a NIC that would
never come.
However, that tweak was tested locally with a qmeu version more recent
than the one available in our buidroot/base Docker image. As a
consequence, that test fails to run in gitlab-ci.
Revert to using the old way of specifying no network: it works on
gitlab-ci, and qemu versions in standard distros still support it.

This new runtime test is based on test_dropbear.py. The only required change
is to use "-oStrictHostKeyChecking=no" instead of "-y" to accept the new key.
Since the base test infra only provide a uClibc-ng toolchain, add a second
test using a glibc based internal toolchain.
For example, this allow to trigger the openssh 8.1p bug with glibc 2.31 [1].

yann.morin.1998@free.fr:
- deduplicate the whole test
- don't provide any NIC, we only need and use lo
- simplify post-build script (append with cat, don't munge with sed)
