It is easy to note that SH2/SH3/SH4 start.S code is practically
the same with a minor difference for SH2 where a short data header is
present. To avoid unwanted code duplication and to automatically
convert SH2 and SH3 platforms to generic board support move fixed SH4
start.S into arch/sh/lib/start.S and share it among all platforms.

The change is similar to commit 994b56616b ("sh: delete an unused
source file") for SH2, however here the removed cache.c file was
built and included into an image as a dead code.
If it is needed in future the contents can be reused from a similar
arch/sh/cpu/sh4/cache.c file, which is in turn will be moved to
a shared among all core flavours location at arch/sh/lib/cache.c.

The top level Makefile does not do any recursion into subdirs when
cleaning, so these clean/distclean targets in random arch/board dirs
never get used. Punt them all.
MAKEALL didn't report any errors related to this that I could see.

Before this commit, weak symbols were not overridden by non-weak symbols
found in archive libraries when linking with recent versions of
binutils. As stated in the System V ABI, "the link editor does not
extract archive members to resolve undefined weak symbols".
This commit changes all Makefiles to use partial linking (ld -r) instead
of creating library archives, which forces all symbols to participate in
linking, allowing non-weak symbols to override weak symbols as intended.
This approach is also used by Linux, from which the gmake function
cmd_link_o_target (defined in config.mk and used in all Makefiles) is
inspired.
The name of each former library archive is preserved except for
extensions which change from ".a" to ".o". This commit updates
references accordingly where needed, in particular in some linker
scripts.
This commit reveals board configurations that exclude some features but
include source files that depend these disabled features in the build,
resulting in undefined symbols. Known such cases include:
- disabling CMD_NET but not CMD_NFS;
- enabling CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT but not CONFIG_QE.
