[Buildroot] Support external toolchains based on gcc 14

[Edgar Bonet]

Hello all!

Last July, right before support for gcc 13 was added for buildroot's
internal toolchain in 3009095ba8 (package/gcc: add support for gcc 13),
the support was added for the external toolchain in dfbd1aae23
(toolchain/toolchain-external/toolchain-external-custom: add gcc 13
version selection).

Last week, support for gcc 14 has been added for the internal toolchain
in 5eb0203cb0 (package/gcc: add version 14.x), but this is still lacking
for the external toolchain. Is this an oversight? Should I just wait?
Should I instead submit a patch equivalent to dfbd1aae23 for gcc 14?

Regards,

Edgar.

You can indeed submit an equivalent patch for gcc 14, it would be very
welcome!
