[committed v2 0/4] Cleanup duplicate test names

GCC's compare_tests script has recently been augmented to report
duplicate test names in the summary file.  The reason for doing this
is that if names are not unique then the test can appear to both pass
and fail in a single run, making the script unable to determine
whether or not this is a regression.

This short patch series cleans up a number of duplicate test names in
the gas component of the testsuite.  I've tried to avoid unnecessary
churn, particularly for the multiple 'as' tests, but some name changes
are inevitable since any duplicate must be resolved to a different
name.
