WebAssembly has a better mindshare than asm.js. In the future, it will
be used in much more than browsers. Also, newer versions of Emscripten
default to WebAssembly.
Tag with the pattern:
<imagename>:YYYYMMDD-SHA{N} where YYYYMMDD is the date of the build and
SHA{N} the output of `git rev-parse --short HEAD`
along with `latest` as discussed in Issue #223.
This helps clients use a fixed, reproducible image that will be
available for a long period of time.
Add a mechanism to construct a full cross-compiler environment using the
"crosstool-ng" cross-compiler building utility. This is implemented in
the new "common.crosstool" include, and augments the "dockcross/base"
base image.
Update Makefile to consolidate Dockerfile generation, notably the
"sed"-based inclusion directives.
Finally, employ all of this to generate a "linux-mips" 32-bit hard-float
MIPS cross-compiler Dockcross image.
This commit updates the "browser-asmjs" images to avoid systematic
rebuild of emscripten sdk. Instead, it introduces dependency on the
image maintained by @trzeci
Note also:
* emscripten sdk updated from 1.36.7 to 1.36.14
* symlinking of "/bin/bash" as "/bin/sh" is reverted. This ensures other
images including file like "common.debian" and relying on standard "sh"
behavior will work as expected.
* workaround associated with CMakeForceCompiler has been removed from
Dockerfile. Emscripten as been fixed.
See https://github.com/kripken/emscripten/pull/4477
* we will revisit once official images are available.

To accommodate the requirements associated with x86 and x64 images, the
command building OpenSSL and CMake became overly complex and hard to
maintain.
This commit has multiple purposes:
(1) simplify common.docker
(2) fix the building of 64-bit shared libraries against the static openssl
libraries by passing the -fPIC flag.
(3) ensure [many]linux-x86 and [many]linux-x64 images have an up-to-date
OpenSSL install. Openssl static libraries are installed in /usr
(4) simplify and speedup CMake build avoiding the second build with
explicit -DCMAKE_USE_OPENSSL:BOOL=ON. Indeed, configuring CMake on Linux
already looks for OpenSSL.
(5) speedup download of CMake source directly downloading the archive
corresponding to the revision.
(6) test CMake by:
- running CMake.FileDownload test
- trying to download a file served over https
