We are going to remove the gcc fork for csky since it doesn't build
with the latest compilers (gcc 8, 10, 11 tested) [1].

Removing theses defconfigs and the csky gcc fork has become unavoidable
since the Buildroot Docker image used by the gitlab CI will switch soon
to Debian bullseye soon [2].

The cksy gcc fork based on gcc 6 has not been updated since it has been
added to Buildroot [3]. Since then, csky has been added to binutils and
gcc but using the latest upstream version (binutils 2.37 and gcc 11) is
not yet possible due to build issue with glibc 2.34 [4].

Moreover, qemu_csky defconfigs was to be used with the csky qemu fork
(based on Qemu 3.x) added by commit [5] and removed by commit [6].
Since then it's not possible to do a runtime test with theses
defconfigs.

Thx for maintain csky part for a long time, we would back to buildroot when upstream toolchain and Qemu were ready.
Thanks for the feedback!

The toolchain upstream process seems almost finished, the next step is the qemu
upstreaming.

I hope everything will be available soon.

Best regards,
Romain
