Based on #87.

Upstream binutils now supports the ratified 1.0.0 bitmanip extensions, so we now use upstream and add the unratified extensions in the patch (thanks @jwnrt).

The updated binutils also contain a fix for generating verilog memory (vmem) files that is useful for OpenTitan.

The glob and ELF BFD patches are no longer required for this version of binutils to build correctly so they are removed.

gmp-devel and mpfr-devel provide headers which are required for the configure phase.

Switched back to draft for now - this should use the static versions of GMP and MPFR instead.
