riscv: Handle zicsr/zifencei issue between gcc and binutils

Browse source 
Binutils-2.38 and GCC-12.1.0 bumped[0][1] the default ISA spec to the newer
20191213 version which moves some instructions from the I extension to the
Zicsr and Zifencei extensions. So if one of the binutils and GCC exceeds
that version, we should explicitly specifying Zicsr and Zifencei via -march
to cope with the new changes. but this only occurs when binutils >= 2.36
and GCC >= 11.1.0. It's a different story when binutils < 2.36.

binutils-2.36 supports the Zifencei extension[2] and splits Zifencei and
Zicsr from I[3]. GCC-11.1.0 is particular[4] because it add support Zicsr
and Zifencei extension for -march. binutils-2.35 does not support the
Zifencei extension, and does not need to specify Zicsr and Zifencei when
working with GCC >= 12.1.0.

To make our lives easier, let's relax the check to binutils >= 2.36 in
CONFIG_TOOLCHAIN_NEEDS_EXPLICIT_ZICSR_ZIFENCEI. For the other two cases,
where clang < 17 or GCC < 11.1.0, we will deal with them in
CONFIG_TOOLCHAIN_NEEDS_OLD_ISA_SPEC.

Newer binutils versions default to ISA spec version 20191213 which
moves some instructions from the I extension to the Zicsr and Zifencei
extensions.
Binutils-2.38 and GCC-12.1.0 bumped the default ISA spec to the newer
20191213 version, which moves some instructions from the I extension to
the Zicsr and Zifencei extensions. This requires explicitly specifying
Zicsr and Zifencei when binutils >= 2.38 or GCC >= 12.1.0. Zicsr
and Zifencei are supported in binutils from version 2.36 onwards.
To make life easier, and avoid forcing toolchains that default to a
newer ISA spec to version 2.2, relax the check to binutils >= 2.36.
For clang < 17 or GCC < 11.1.0, for which this is not possible, this is
dealt with in CONFIG_TOOLCHAIN_NEEDS_OLD_ISA_SPEC.

help
Certain versions of clang do not support zicsr and zifencei via -march
but newer versions of binutils require it for the reasons noted in the
help text of CONFIG_TOOLCHAIN_NEEDS_EXPLICIT_ZICSR_ZIFENCEI. This
option causes an older ISA spec compatible with these older versions
of clang to be passed to GAS, which has the same result as passing zicsr
and zifencei to -march.
