scripts/functions: add aria2, a powerfull downloader

aria2 is a powerfull downloader that is capable of chunking and
parallel retrieval.

Due to li;itations in crosstool-NG retrieval facilities, it's not possible
to take fully advantage of aria2. It might happen that, in the future,
those limitations get lifted away, so we can take use features such as
parallel downloading from more than one server at the same time. For now,
it should still speed up downloads thanks to parallel downloading of chunks.

Without this patch, the sec script that processed initfini.s removes a
yann@1625
     8
part of inlined call_gmon_start, causing undefined label errors.

This patch solves the problem by forcing gcc not to inline
yann@1625
    11
call_gmon_start with __attribute__ ((noinline)).
