[patch] add missing mips .bss.* section support

I noticed this while trying to get libmudflap working for a mips-elf
embedded target. I was using the newlib-1.13.0 release. It is missing
support for the .sbss.* and .bss.* sections. libmudflap is compiled
with the -fdata-sections option, and so this results in linker errors
(relocation overflow) if the linker script doesn't handle .sbss sections
correctly. Richard Sandiford fixed the .sbss.* problem in mainline
newlib, but the .bss.* support is still missing.
Building a mips-elf toolchain, and running the testsuite, I see that
this patch fixes 96 libstdc++ failures. This is essentially the same
problem as my last patch, except with an updated toolchain, i.e.
gcc-4.1.x instead of gcc-4.0.1. Now the compiler is using .bss.* COMDAT
sections instead of .gnu.linkonce.bss.* sections, and is failing for the
same reason previously described. So we need to support both types of
bss sections in the linker scripts.
This patch adds the missing .bss.* support to all of the mips linker
scripts in libgloss. The idt.ld script change was tested with a full
mips-elf toolchain build and make check. It fixes 96 libstdc++
failures, and there were no regressions. The other linker script
changes were tested with one simple testcase, to verify that I didn't
get a linker script parsing error.
