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 reporter_comment="This is a sample config file for Freescale e500v2 processors (e.g.,

     4 MPC8548, MPC8572).  It uses eglibc (for e500/SPE patches) and a recent

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

     6 dual-precision floating point instructions by default.

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

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

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

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

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