Here's another version that addresses those comments.  I decided to
rename CROSS_*_PATH to CROSS_*_PREFIX because it offended my
sensibilities to call something that may not refer to a filesystem
object a path.

MFP4 222356, 222371, 222375, 222391, 222403, 222407, 222411, 222446, 222461

Add support for an external cross compiler.  The cross compiler is
specified by passing the XCC, XCXX, and XCPP variables (corresponding to
CC, CXX, and CPP) to buildworld/buildkernel.  The compiler must be clang
or be configured to target the appropriate architecture.

To speed build times, if XCC is an absolute path or
WITHOUT_CROSS_COMPILER is defined then no cross compiler will be built
during the cross-tools stage.

To facilitate the use of unmodified external compilers, a
WITHOUT_FORMAT_EXTENSIONS option is available to supress printf format
checking.

As a short-term measure, supress a few new clang warnings during kernel
builds.
