[PATCH][binutils] Handle DW_FORM_ref_sig8 in get_type_abbrev_from_form

[Tom de Vries]

Hi,

When compiling an exec like this:
...
$ gcc -fdebug-types-section hello.c -gdwarf-5
...
we run into:
...
$ readelf -w a.out > READELF
readelf: Warning: Unexpected form 20 encountered whilst finding \
  abbreviation for type
...

Fix this by handling DW_FORM_ref_sig8 conservatively in
get_type_abbrev_from_form.

OK for trunk?

Thanks,
- Tom
