    AVR: PR34307 - Fix diagnostic for opcode unknown to MCU
    
    When there is an AVR instruction in include/opcode/avr.h that
    is not supported by a specific MCU, then gas will diagnose
    with the mnemonic of the next instruction:
    
        mul 1,2
        mulsu 1,1
        lat
    
    $ avr-as x.sx
    x.sx: Assembler messages:
    x.sx:1: Error: illegal opcode or for mcu avr2
    x.sx:2: Error: illegal opcode fmul for mcu avr2
    x.sx:3: Error: illegal opcode movw for mcu avr2
    
    The reason is that in gas/config/tc-avr.c::md_assemble() we have:
    
       while ((opcode->isa & avr_mcu->isa) != opcode->isa)
         {
           opcode++;
    
           if (opcode->name && strcmp(op, opcode->name))
             {
               as_bad (_("illegal opcode %s for mcu %s"),
                       opcode->name, avr_mcu->name);
               return;
             }
         }
    
    which in the as_bad case prints the next instruction's mnemonic
    due to the opcode++ above.
    
    gas/
            * config/tc-avr.c (md_assemble): Use right index to diagnose
            an opcode that are not supported by the MCU.
