Yann E. MORIN 556a0a1104 Revert "make: support: use command -v' instead of which'"
This reverts commit ca6a2907c2.

Switching to using 'command -v' instead of 'which', opened a can of
worms that is hard to fix in a timely manner:

  - recursive call to 'make' from a post-build, post-iamge script, fails
    because of a redefinition of HOSTCC_NOCCACHE (a bug on its own that
    needs a separate fix anyway) [0];

  - 'make' believeing it can call "simple" commands with execve() et al.
    instead of passing them through a shell via system(), and thus
    failing to find 'command' in the PATH [1].
