basic target support

powerpc64le-unknown-freebsd13.0 is a brand new target for FreeBSD.

Add support for targeting it with binutils.

(Note: I don't have the maintainer mode autotools installed, I patched Makefile.am by hand. Would appreciate if someone reran automake to double check my work.)

I verified basic operation of ld by using it as an external linker from clang.
