    gas: improve --gsframe documentation
    
    I omitted documentation in 8aad677a12832885acd5be1de8f41e740b8e713d in
    error. Rectify that with:
    1) changing ---help to mention bare `--gsframe` too, as we're not
       getting rid of that;
    
    2) adding the new --gsframe=[no|yes] form to as.texi.
    
            PR gas/33125
            * gas/as.c (parse_args): Tweak --gsframe= help text.
            * gas/doc/as.texi: Document --gsframe=[no|yes].
    
    (cherry picked from commit 50c1c57426db6e1c7b44b4d05f0b07fcba91f890)
