gas: Add --gdwarf-cie-version command line flag
Add a flag to control the version of CIE that is generated. By default gas produces CIE version 1, and this continues to be the default after this patch. However, a user can now provide --gdwarf-cie-version=NUMBER to switch to either version 3 or version 4 of CIE, version 2 was never released, and so causes an error as does any number less than 1 or greater than 4. Producing version 4 CIE requires two new fields to be added to the CIE, an address size field, and an segment selector field. For a flat address space the DWARF specification indicates that the segment selector should be 0, and the address size fields just contains the address size in bytes. For now we support 4 or 8 byte addresses, and the segment selector is always produced as 0. At some future time we might need to allow targets to override this. gas/ChangeLog: * as.c (parse_args): Parse --gdwarf-cie-version option.
