Hi Jeff & Andrew,

After a brief discussion with the previous maintainers of
the Linux nds32 port, it is reasonable to deprecate nds32-linux
for GCC 14 and remove it for GCC 15.

However, considering that there are still customers relying on
nds32le-elf and nds32be-elf for their embedded systems,
it would be great to keep nds32le-elf and nds32be-elf in the
GCC/binutils-gdb/newlib-cygwin repository.

Regards,
jasonwucj
