[PATCH] RISC-V: Fix lui relaxation issue with code at address 0.

This fixes a problem originally reported at
    https://github.com/riscv/riscv-binutils-gdb/issues/173

If you have code linked at address zero, you can have a lui instruction
loading a value 0x800 which gets relaxed to a c.lui which is valid (c.lui 0x1
followed by addi -0x800).  Relaxation can reduce the value below 0x800 at which
point the c.lui 0x0 is no longer valid.  We can fix this by converting the
c.lui to a c.li which can load 0.

This was triggered by the changes from Optimitech to enable relaxation in
code and merge sections.

This patch adds a new testcase, since normally we don't link at address 0 by
default.  The new test fails without the patch, and works with the patch.

This was tested with a cross gcc make check for 32-bit elf and 64-bit linux,
and cross binutils make check for 32/64 elf/linux.  There were no regressions.

Committed.

	bfd/
	* elfnn-riscv.c (perform_relocation) <R_RISCV_RVC_LUI>: If
	RISCV_CONST_HIGH_PART (value) is zero, then convert c.lui instruction
	to c.li instruction, and use ENCODE_RVC_IMM to set value.

	ld/
	* testsuite/ld-riscv-elf/c-lui-2.d: New.
	* testsuite/ld-riscv-elf/c-lui-2.ld: New.
	* testsuite/ld-riscv-elf/c-lui-2.s: New.
	* testsuite/ld-riscv-elf/ld-riscv-elf.exp: Run the c-lui-2 test.
