[PATCH 2/5] gas: squash (some) .linefile from listings

Not so long ago we started to insert these artificially when expanding
certain macro-like constructs; zap them as cluttering what actually
results from user input.
---
We may want to also zap ones resulting from "# <line> <file>", albeit
these anyway appear in listings only when assembling from stdin. Such
zapping also would need to happen elsewhere and/or in a different
manner.
Slightly RFC: Am I at risk of zapping a label named "linefile" this way?
(At least we can assume that this directive is the only think on a line,
_if_ it is a directive, for being internal only.) If so, lifting
buffer_and_nest()'s respective logic into a helper function may be the
way to go.
