Added the TOOL_PREFIX variable for setting up the executable tools.
Currently three different tool chains seem to be used: * avr-* * pic32-* * arm-none-eabi-* These all get set up independently. This patch centralizes the definitions of the executable tools and does it generically, by means of the newly introduced TOOL_PREFIX variable. Setting up a tool chain is now simply a matter of defining the TOOL_PREFIX variable. For the currently supported tool chains it gets set to avr, pic32 or arm-none-eabi. Arbitrary tool chains can now easily be set up, by the TOOL_PREFIX variable. Although the use of the OVERRIDE_EXECUTABLES variable is now almost not justifiable, it was left as-is, in order to assure backwards compatibility.
