This patch doesn't change that behaviour. You can still build a BSP
without providing --rtems-compiler at all and it will default to GCC.
However, this patch addresses the case when you provide an
"--rtems-compiler=blah", where "blah" can't be found nor supported.
For example, without this patch, if I pass "--rtems-compiler=clang"
and it's not supported/found, it will fallback default to GCC silently
without giving any errors. I don't think that's a desirable behaviour.
