This patch adds .abicalls and .set pic0 support which
affects the ELF ABI and its flags. In addition the patch uses
a common interface for both the MipsTargetSteamer and
MipsObjectStreamer that both the integrated and standalone
assemblers will use for the output for these directives.

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.

As we can't make a complete solution now it has been decided to enable .set directive to handle long jump expressions. This will cause parser to report errors when parsing integer based register assignments, for example:
.set r3, will be reported as error. Still, the need for expressions is higher priority as the integer based register assignments are Mips specific and can be avoided using register names.

not being correctly encoded/decoded.
In more detail, immediate fields of LD/ST instructions should be
divided/multiplied by the size of the data format before encoding and
after decoding, respectively.

No true functional changes.
Change the "hack" name of emitMipsHackSTOCG to emitSymSTO.
Remove demonstration code in AsmParser for emitMipsHackSTOCG and
emitMipsHackELFFlags. The STO field is in an ELF symbol and is not
an explicit directive. That said, we are missing the compliment call
in AsmParser and that will need to be addressed soon.
XFAIL dummy tests for emitMipsHackELFFlags and emitMipsHackELFFlags.
These will built out with following patches.

These instructions are logically related as they allow read/write of MSA control registers.
Currently MSA control registers are emitted by number but hopefully that will change as soon
as GAS starts accepting them by name as that would make the assembly easier to read.

INSERT is the first type of MSA instruction that requires a change to the way
MSA registers are parsed. This happens because MSA registers may be suffixed by
an index in the form of an immediate or a general purpose register. The changes
to parseMSARegs reflect that requirement.

When MC was first added, targets could use hasRawTextSupport to keep features
working before they were added to the MC interface.
The design goal of MC is to provide an uniform api for printing assembly and
object files. Short of relaxations and other corner cases, a object file is
just another representation of the assembly.
It was never the intention that targets would keep doing things like
if (hasRawTextSupport())
Set flags in one way.
else
Set flags in another way.
When they do that they create two code paths and the object file is no longer
just another representation of the assembly. This also then requires testing
with llc -filetype=obj, which is extremelly brittle.
This patch removes some of these hacks by replacing them with smaller ones.
The ARM flag setting is trivial, so I just moved it to the constructor. For
Mips, the patch adds two temporary hack directives that allow the assembly
to represent the same things as the object file was already able to.
The hope is that the mips developers will replace the hack directives with
the same ones that gas uses and drop the -print-hack-directives flag.
I will also try to implement a target streamer interface, so that we can
move this out of the common code.
In summary, for any new work, two rules of the thumb are
* Don't use "llc -filetype=obj" in tests.
* Don't add calls to hasRawTextSupport.
