The method for getting a memory usage report printed during build, is
based on a GNU linker (ld) option flag, and thus is not necessarily
supported by other toolchain binary tools.
The introduced cmake macro allows for a given toolchain to specify how
the memory usage report is to be generated, and whether the command for
generation, if any, is to be added to the post_build_commands and the
post_build_byproducts lists of the top level CMakeLists.txt
The intent here is to abstract Zephyr's dependence on toolchains,
thus allowing for easier porting to other, perhaps commercial,
toolchains and/or usecases.
No functional change expected.

This forms the foundation for the abstraction of the binary tools,
where the following steps are taken:
- Move binary tool resolving, such as objcopy, objdump, readelf and
so forth, out of compiler definitions and place in a dedicated binary
tools folder with the binary tools supplier as subfolder, similar to
the compiler and linker directories.
- Create binary tool sets, gnu, host-gnu and llvm.
- Each toolchain selects the required set of binary tools by setting
BINTOOLS via its generic.cmake as it also does for compiler and linker.
