config: fix generated config files when GREP_OPTIONS set --color=always

grep is used when generating some .in files (in config.gen). If GREP_OPTIONS
contains --color=always, then the generated files will contains some escape
sequences setting the color, and mconf would choke on those escape sequences.

Always set and export an empty GREP_OPTIONS to avoid that.

gcc (4.3.1, for e500v2 DPFP support) and will generate appropriate

Note: If building a Linux kernel with this toolchain, you will want to

make sure -mno-spe AND -mspe=no are passed to gcc to prevent SPE

ABI/instructions from getting into the kernel (which is currently

unsupported).  At this time, the kernel build system only passes

-mno-spe by default (this should be fixed soon hopefully)."
