 Remove the pc386 BSP (bsps/i386/pc386/config/pc386.cfg). The BSP for the
 historic Intel 80386 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_80386).

 The reasons are:

 * Obsolete platform.
 * GCC wants to get rid of this processor.
  * http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2012-12/msg00132.html
  * https://lists.rtems.org/pipermail/devel/2013-August/004124.html
 * It is the only user of bin2boot. Host tools complicate the build system.
