RFC: Adding a target to src-release.sh to crate a binutils release without Gold

[Nick Clifton]

Hi Guys,

   Attached is a proposed patch to the src-release.sh script to
   add a target that creates a binutils release without the Gold
   linker.  This is part of a longer mission to deprecate gold
   since it is starting to bit rot without active maintainers to
   add new features.

   In theory this should have been a simple change, but in the
   process of creating it I noticed that the usage() function did
   not display the allowed release targets.  So I fixed that.
   Then I realised that the gas, no_gold_bin and binutils targets
   are incremental and it did not make sense to list all of their
   component sub-directories each time, so I fixed that too.  Hence
   the patch is slightly larger than might be expected.

   Any comments or questions ?

Cheers
   Nick
