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.

     3 -= BEGIN original header =-
     4 	With latest versions of glibc, a lot of apps failed on a PaX enabled
     5 	system with:
     6 		 cannot enable executable stack as shared object requires: Permission denied
     7 	
     8 	This is due to PaX 'exec-protecting' the stack, and ld.so then trying
     9 	to make the stack executable due to some libraries not containing the
    10 	PT_GNU_STACK section.  Bug #32960.  <azarah@gentoo.org> (12 Nov 2003).
    11 
    12 	Patch also NPTL. Bug #116086. <kevquinn@gentoo.org> (20 Dec 2005).
