This commit adds a new extended menmonic for "sync 0" (same as "sync").
The ISA documentation doesn't explicitly mention hwsync as an extended
mnemonic (yet), but it does mention "heavyweight sync" and "hwsync" as
the operation that gets performed when the sync's L field is 0.
This is only enabled for POWER4 and later.

As pointed out before, the documentation mandates the rounding mode to

AMD64 spec and Intel64 spec differ in direct unconditional branches in
64-bit mode. AMD64 supports direct unconditional branches with 16-bit
offset via the data size prefix, which truncates RIP to 16 bits, while
the data size prefix is ignored by Intel64.
This patch adds -mamd64/-mintel64 option to x86-64 assembler and
-Mamd64/-Mintel64 option to x86-64 disassembler. The most permissive
ISA, which is AMD64, is the default.
GDB can add an option, similar to
(gdb) help set disassembly-flavor
Set the disassembly flavor.
The valid values are "att" and "intel", and the default value is "att".

This patch adds -mshared option to x86 ELF assembler. By default,
assembler will optimize out non-PLT relocations against defined non-weak
global branch targets with default visibility. The -mshared option tells
the assembler to generate code which may go into a shared library
where all non-weak global branch targets with default visibility can
be preempted. The resulting code is slightly bigger. This option
only affects the handling of branch instructions.

On ELF target, the assembler normally generates code which can go into a
shared library where non-weak symbols can be preempted. The -mno-shared
option tells the assembler to generate code not for a shared library,

smaller. This option mainly affects the handling of branch instructions.

Currently every fixup in the current segment is checked when relaxing
trampoline frag. This is very expensive. Make a searchable array of

relaxation pass and only check subset of this cache in the reach of
single jump from the trampoline frag currently being relaxed.
