Adds support for including RISC-V control and status registers into
core files.

bfd/ChangeLog:

	* elf-bfd.h (elfcore_write_riscv_csr): Declare.
	* elf.c (elfcore_grok_riscv_csr): New function.
	(elfcore_grok_note): Handle NT_RISCV_CSR.
	(elfcore_write_riscv_csr): New function.
	(elfcore_write_register_note): Handle '.reg-riscv-csr'.

binutils/ChangeLog:

	* readelf.c (get_note_type): Handle NT_RISCV_CSR.

include/ChangeLog:

	* elf/common.h (NT_RISCV_CSR): Define.
