Add support for new functionality in the msp430 backend of GCC.

This functionality will generate a new GNU object attribute for the "data region"
has been added. This object attribute is used
mark whether the compiler has generated code assuming that data could be in the
upper or lower memory regions.

Code which assumes data is always in the lower memory region is incompatible
with code which uses the full memory range for data.

The patch also adds a new assembler directive ".mspabi_attribute" to handle the
existing MSPABI object attributes. GCC will now emit both .gnu_attribute and
.mspabi_attribute directives to indicate what options the source file was
compiled with.

The assembler will now check the values set in these directives against the
options that the it has been invoked with. If there is a discrepancy, the
assembler will exit with an error.

+@item .mspabi_attribute
+This directive tells the assembler what the MSPABI build attributes for this
+file are.  This is used for validating the command line options passed to
+the assembler against the options the original source file was compiled with.
+The expected format is:
+@samp{.mspabi_attribute tag_name, tag_value}
+For example, to set the tag @code{OFBA_MSPABI_Tag_ISA} to @code{MSP430X}:
+@samp{.mspabi_attribute 4, 2}
+
+See the @cite{MSP430 EABI, document slaa534} for the details on tag names and
