[PATCH 3/5] gas: Default to ELF for RTEMS targets

[Joel Sherrill]

One of the reasons this was duplicated was to ensure
that when someone tinkered with a target they knew
XXX-rtems was impacted. With this patch, there is
no record of each cpu-rtems being a used target.

I know binutils doesn't remove targets often but this
makes the individual RTEMS targets invisible.

It definitely means we likely don't have to touch
these files for new targets but it also means
we aren't obvious when deprecation discussions
occur.

It would be nice to have a binutils maintainer wade
in. I can see how this is a nice clean up patch but
it loses information.  What are the thoughts on this?

Except for the loss of documentation issue, I am
OK with it.
