[PATCH v3 05/18] CRIS/LD/testsuite: Add tests for emulation switching

From: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@redhat.com>

Add tests matching generic ones from ld-archive/archive.exp for explicit 
link emulation switching, verifying that correct output is produced from 
a link including an archive the format of which is not the default one.

This covers generic BFD code using `cris-aout' and `cris-elf' targets as 
ones that permit switching between dissimilar emulations from assembly 
through the link.

Only tests for link emulation explicitly specified are included at this 
stage, as bugs in BFD currently prevent links from successful completion 
that use the default emulation while involving archives in a non-default 
format.  Additional tests will be included with a subsequent change that 
addresses said bugs.
