Do not install Ada compiler by default
For newbies starting with coreboot, installing Ada compiler would sometimes result in issues while building the coreboot toolchain. Since the idea of the coreboot tutorial is to only install minimum additional software, installing Ada compiler should not be part of the default step in the tutorial.
The warning printed by have_gnat() in util/crossgcc/buildgcc might still be useful.
