[patch] Arm EABI object attributes

Attached is an updated patch to implement Arm EABI object attributes. The 
original patch can be found here:
http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2005-09/msg00339.html

This patch should address all the concerns raised.

Notable changes are:

arm_cpus has grown an extra field for the canonical name. Most of the time 
this is NULL, so the uppercase version of the normal name is used.

The first 32 tags are always defined (implicitly or explicitly), so these are 
held in an array rather than a linked list. This is more efficient, and 
simplifies the checks done when merging attributes from different sources.

Tested with cross to arm-none-eabi.
Ok?
