Summary:
There are various distros that build GHC using their own C compilers
such as MSYS2. Currently they have to patch the build scripts everytime.

This patch provides the configure argument `--enable-distro-toolchain`
which allows one to build using any C compiler on the path.

This is also useful for testing new versions of GCC.

Test Plan:
./configure --enable-distro-toolchain && make - && make THREADS=9 test
./validate
