Benchmark Linaro 4.4, 4.5 GCC and Android's 4.4 GCC

Registered by Zach Pfeffer

We need to create a page like this:

https://wiki.linaro.org/JimHuang/Sandbox/LinaroToolchainAndroidBenchmarking

for the Linaro 4.4 and 4.5 toolchains and the default Google toolchain 4.4.0

It should be linked from:

https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android

The android toolchain can be retrieved using:

https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/GetSource

using:

https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/leb-panda/

The toolchains are available at:

https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/ToolChain

http://launchpad.net/gcc-linaro/4.4/4.4-2011.02-0/+download/gcc-linaro-4.4-2011.02-0.tar.bz2
http://launchpad.net/gcc-linaro/4.5/4.5-2011.06-0/+download/gcc-linaro-4.5-2011.06-0.tar.bz2

The benchmarks are installed via: https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/UpstreamToolchain

The new wiki page created by this work is now at:
  https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/AndroidToolchainBenchmarking

This is largely automated now with the scripts from:
  http://people.linaro.org/~doanac/benchmarks/

The run-benchmarks script will download toolchail, build benchmarks, and run them.
The generate-wiki-page script take the output of run-benchmarks for each toolchain and build a wiki page like:
  https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/AndroidToolchainBenchmarking/2011-06
