As Arnout noted, we removed the BR2_ARM_OABI option without adding the
corresponding option in Config.in.legacy, so users upgrading to
Buildroot 2013.08 with an OABI configuration would get migrated
automatically to EABI without any warning.

This commit introduces such a legacy option, so that such users would
be explicitly warned about the removal of OABI support.

+         and has been removed completely from Buildroot. It is also

+         long as you don't have pre-built OABI binaries in your
