Build Portability Updates (#253)
These updates should make it easier for developers on different
platforms to contribute.
* Remove the definition of GccPath from the project definition.
* Replace references to GccPath with ArmGccPath.
* Update Build instructions to indicate that ArmGccPath
must be set in the workspace C/C++ Build Variables.
* Remove .settings/language.settings.xml from the git index.
* Update .gitignore to add .settings/language.settings.xml
and the build variant output directories.
