[PATCH] newlib: libm: workaround ar duplicate member behavior

GNU ar has undocumented behavior where it doesn't dedupe its inputs if
they're all on the same command line, so we have to dedupe ourselves.

+## GNU ar has undocumented behavior when specifying the same name multiple times
+## in a single invocation, so we have to dedupe ourselves by copying objects to
+## a temporary directory.  We start with using ln to create fast hardlinks.  If
+## that fails, GNU cp has annoying behavior where you can't copy multiple files
+## to the same target filename, so have to run cp for each input in a loop.
