tile: improve detection for missing -mcmodel=large support
The existing test avoided passing -mcmodel=large if the compiler didn't support it. However, we need to test not just the compiler support, but also the toolchain (as and ld) support, so make the test more complete. In addition, we have to avoid using the hwN_plt() assembly operators if that support is missing, so guard the uses with #ifdef NO_PLT_PCREL. This allows us to properly build glibc with the current community binutils, which doesn't yet have the PC-relative PLT operator support. The -mcmodel=large support is in gcc 4.8, but the toolchain support won't be present in the community until binutils 2.24.
