Workaround for Global C++ Constructor problem on ARM

[YOCTO #938]

Workaround for a problem with the order of the global C++ constructors on ARM.
The workaround is simply to avoid defining the ID numbers outside of the
usage of the ID's.

This also has the effect of fixing a problem on MIPS, where "_mips" is a
defined symbol and unavailable on the system for a variable name.

Workaround a problem with the C++ global constructors on ARM.
As documented in the Yocto Bugzilla bug 938, the global constructors
that define DEF_BUILTIN [const IdString _foo ( "foo" );] are not running
before the usage of _foo during the initialization of the compatibility
table.
The patch, along with a similar change to the recipe generation of the
poky-arch.h file, remove the DEF_BUILTIN globals and replace them with
immediate strings wherever they are used.
