This fix add more test cases for routines check MIPS ELF header flags and
flags from .MIPS.abiflags sections. The tests use yaml2obj for object
files generation because not all combinations of flags can be produced
by LLVM tools.

Summary:
I also changed the message to print both the ISA and the the architecture
name for incompatible files. Previously it would be quite hard to find the
actual path of the incompatible object files in projects that have many
object files with the same name in different directories.

Currently LLVM can only generate PIC code for MIPS64 with the N64 as
it uses the idiom "isPositionIndependent() || IsABI_N64()" throughout the
MIPS backend. r293164 changed this, causing test failures for LLD.
This patch changes the tests minimally to preserve existing test coverage
and one case where the test was "right" in the wrong circumstance.

In short the patch introduces support for linking object file conform
MIPS N32 ABI [1]. This ABI is similar to N64 ABI but uses 32-bit
pointer size.
The most non-trivial requirement of this ABI is one more relocation
packing format. N64 ABI puts multiple relocation type into the single
relocation record. The N32 ABI uses series of successive relocations
with the same offset for this purpose. In this patch, new function
`mergeMipsN32RelTypes` handle this case and "convert" N32 relocation to
the N64 relocation so the rest of the code keep unchanged.
For now, linker does not support series of relocations applied to sections
without SHF_ALLOC bit. Probably later I will add the support or insert
some sort of assert into the `relocateNonAlloc` routine to catch this
case.

This section supersedes .reginfo and .MIPS.options sections. But for now
we have to support all three sections for ABI transition period.

MIPS ISA encoded using two ELF flags: general architecture flag like
EF_MIPS_ARCH_32, EF_MIPS_ARCH_64R6 etc and optional machine variant flag
like EF_MIPS_MACH_4111, EF_MIPS_MACH_OCTEON3 etc. When we check
compatibility between two input files and deduce ELF flags for generated
output we need to take into account both of these flags.

Previously, we incrementally updated the reuslting flag as we check
file flags, so it was not very clear who is updating what flags.
This patch makes them pure functions -- that has no side effect and
don't update arguments to improve readability.
Now each function construct a patial result, and all resutls are then
bitwise-OR'ed to construct the final result.
This patch also creates a new file, Mips.cpp, to move all these
MIPS functions to a separate file.

The patch extends the `getMipsEFlags` function. Now in that function
we iterate over all object files, parse ELF header flags and merge them.
If a file is incompatible with previously analyzed ones we show an error
or warning. That can happen if, for example, we try to link files with
incompatible ABI, ISA, NAN encoding etc.
There is an alternative solution. We can check and merge flags and
reject incompatible input modules in the `isCompatible` function which
is called from the `SymbolTable::addFile` method. But in that case we
have to save and keep somewhere a merged ELF flags combination to use it
later in the writer.
