Ben Wiederhake 5f724b6ca1 Travis: Toolchain only depends on headers, not impls
When libstdc++ was added in 4977fd22b8, just calling
'make install' was the easiest way to install the headers. And the headers are all
that is needed for libstdc++ to determine the ABI. Since then, BuildIt.sh was
rewritten again and again, and somehow everyone just silently assumed that
libstdc++ also depends on libc.a and libm.a, because surely it does?

Turns out, it doesn't! This massively reduces the dependencies of libstdc++,
hopefully meaning that the Toolchain doesn't need to be rebuilt so often on Travis.

Furthermore, the old method of trying to determine the dependency tree with
bash/grep/etc. has finally broken anyways:

    https://travis-ci.com/github/SerenityOS/serenity/builds/179805569#L567

In summary, this should eliminate most of the Toolchain rebuilds on Travis,
and therefore make Travis build blazingly fast! :^)

SerenityOS

Graphical Unix-like operating system for x86 computers.

Travis CI status

About

SerenityOS is a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.

Roughly speaking, the goal is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s *nix. This is a system by us, for us, based on the things we like.

I (Andreas) regularly post raw hacking sessions and demos on my YouTube channel.

Sometimes I write about the system on my github.io blog.

I'm also on Patreon and GitHub Sponsors if you would like to show some support that way.
