Currently, if the assembler encounters an error after parsing (such as an
out-of-range fixup), it reports this as a fatal error, and so stops after the
first error. However, for most of these there is an obvious way to recover
after emitting the error, such as emitting the fixup with a value of zero. This
means that we can report on all of the errors in a file, not just the first
one. MCContext::reportError records the fact that an error was encountered, so
we won't actually emit an object file with the incorrect contents.

This adds reportError to MCContext, which can be used as an alternative to
reportFatalError when the assembler wants to try to continue processing the
rest of the file after the error is reported, so that all of the errors ina
file can be reported. It records the fact that an error was encountered, so we
can avoid emitting an object file if any errors occurred.
This patch doesn't add any uses of this function (a later patch will convert
most uses of reportFatalError to use it), but there is a small functional
change: we use the SourceManager to print the error message, even if we have a
null SMLoc. This means that we get a SourceManager-style message, with the file
and line information shown as <unknown>, rather than the "LLVM ERROR" style
used by report_fatal_error.

Implement microMIPS 16-bit unconditional branch instruction B.
Implemented 16-bit microMIPS unconditional instruction has real name B16, and
B is an alias which expands to either B16 or BEQ according to the rules:
b 256 --> b16 256 # R_MICROMIPS_PC10_S1
b 12256 --> beq $zero, $zero, 12256 # R_MICROMIPS_PC16_S1
b label --> beq $zero, $zero, label # R_MICROMIPS_PC16_S1

branch instructions for mips and micromips instruction sets thus avoiding
the situation of generating branches to undesired locations if offsets
cannot be encoded.
This patch also checks if a fixup cannot be applied and returns a fatal error
if that's the case.
