MIPS assembler branch relaxations

[Alexandre Oliva]

This patch arranges for the MIPS assembler to turn out-of-range
branches into jumps.  No regressions are introduced in the binutils
testsuites for a mips-linux build.  Details on how it is done are in
comments in the beginning of the patch.  Ok to install?
