toolchain.eclass: abort if hybrid CPU detected w/ -march=native
Unfortunately, the previous approach can't work. --param doesn't fully
wipe out the previous value added by -march=native, so we still get a failed
comparison.
Users hitting this should install app-misc/resolve-march-native, run
resolve-march-native, and use that in their *FLAGS instead of -march=native -
at least for sys-devel/gcc via package.env, if not in make.conf.
Therefore, our only real option is to just abort when we detect a problematic
situation and tell users what to do.
The only other idea I had was to try taskset in src_compile which feels super
brittle and not sure it'd even work at all.
Thanks to Andrei for testing and debugging with us on IRC & the bug.
