This was apparently introduced to recreate the toolchain (wipe
staging_dir/toolchain*, but keep build_dir/toolchain*, followed by a
`make toolchain/compile`).
But it leaves leftovers and causes re-links to happen at src_install phase,
because of the changed paths, possibly adding yet another source of issues.
With the prior commits removing various hacks related to the "initial"
folder we can remove installing it twice altogether.
The recreated toolchain is exactly the same as before.

A modern glibc only links against libgcc_eh for its tests or when building it
static, which doesn't happen here.

If the staging dir was deleted, the build needs to recompile some files.
This change speeds up this corner case significantly

No extra libc header build step is done, so no extra toolchain is needed
for preparing it.
This saves a significant amount of build time and disk space

testing uclibc changes is tricky because the final gcc tends to miscompile
uclibc code or barf up internal compiler errors.
install binutils into $(TOOLCHAIN_DIR)/initial (without changing the configure
prefix) and copy it from there to $(TOOLCHAIN_DIR)/ so that the initial gcc
can be put into $(PATH) for the uclibc build, even if the final gcc
is already installed.
