mips: disable combreloc for NEWABI

As explained in the comments introduced in the patch below, combreloc
breaks with the n64 ABI, because n64 packs three consecutive
relocations in one.  I've only noticed problems on n64, but n32 also
composes relocations, so I thought I'd leave combreloc disabled for it
too.  I might also have gone ahead and disabled combreloc for all mips
emulations, since the only dynamic relocation is RELATIVE anyway, so
there's no benefit in combining relocations.  Thoughts?  Ok to
install?
