These ten hold up the wall clock on their own. Their configure stages
run while nothing else does, because the tools build in dependency
order. Measured over a full build, cold cache against warm:
sed 21.68 s -> 1.22 s
m4 21.48 s -> 1.22 s
findutils 19.47 s -> 1.56 s
tar 17.75 s -> 1.47 s
cpio 14.28 s -> 1.26 s
bison 12.81 s -> 1.29 s
patch 12.16 s -> 1.31 s
elfutils 26.58 s -> 15.47 s
Each of the ten configures the same way with a warm cache as it does
without one. The check runs configure three times, without a cache, with
a cold cache and with a warm cache, and compares every file that
configure generates between the first and the last. ncurses fails that
check; these do not.
The only difference left is ac_ct_AR and ac_ct_RANLIB, which a cold run
fills through the fallback path of AC_CHECK_TOOL and a warm run leaves
empty. AR and RANLIB are correct in both, and no generated Makefile
reads the ac_ct_ form.
tools/cmake keeps its 33 s, the longest configure stage in the build. It
bootstraps with its own script rather than autoconf, so this does not
reach it.

of programs installed by findutils,
which will create a stampfile for each
through a new feature in host-build.mk.

Update findutils to 4.7.0
Remove patches
Enable pthreads
Disable NLS support to be consistent with other tools such as bison, e2fsprogs
and sed.
Disable selinux support to be consistent with other tools such as sed and tar
Disable rpath as we don't need hardcoded paths
