Enable the in-tree binutils to assemble and disassemble amd64 FSGSBASE
instructions (rdfsbase, rdgsbase, wrfsbase, wrgsbase), used in the base
system since r322763.
This gives one last gasp for in-tree gcc, and provides a small
enhancement for in-tree binutils objdump.

This fixes the problem on amd64 miscompiling mpboot.s causing boot
issues... We are still using gas for a few files in the kernel...

Thanks to Mike Belopuhov for the pointer to the OpenBSD patch, though
OpenBSD's gcc is very different that it only helped w/ where to modify,
not how... Thanks to jhb for some early reviews...

manuals and the existing support for handling the fxsave and fxrstor
instructions. This will let us use these instructions natively with GCC
rather than hardcoding the opcodes in hex.

Amongst others, this added upstream support for some FreeBSD-specific
things that we previously had to manually hack in, such as the OSABI
label support, and so on.
There are also quite a number of new files, some for cpu's (e.g. SPU)
that we may or may not be interested in, but those can be cleaned up
later on, if needed.
