Enable 64-bit archives in ar and ranlib
Since existing ld and gold support the 64-bit (MIPS) ELF archives, we can use the 64-bit (MIPS) ELF archives as 64-bit archives. Since the plugin target is used to create archive in plugin-enabled ar, we need a way to enable 64-bit archives in the plugin target. This patch adds --enable-64-bit-archive to bfd to force 64-bit archives in ar and ranlib. Since both 64-bit MIPS and s390 ELF targets currently use 64-bit archives, 64-bit archives are enabled by default for them. 64-bit archive is generated automatically if the archive is too big. Tested on Linux/x86 and Linux/x86-64 with existing ld and gold. bfd/ PR binutils/14625 * archive.c (bfd_slurp_armap): Replace bfd_elf64_archive_slurp_armap with _bfd_archive_64_bit_slurp_armap.
