Add some types to struct builtin_type
This adds some types to struct builtin_type, ensuring it contains all the types currently used by objfile_type. Reviewed-By: Simon Marchi <simon.marchi@efficios.com>

+ - gdb's CORE_ADDR values are addresses in the unified virtual
+ address space that the assembler and linker work with. Thus,
+ since target_read_memory takes a CORE_ADDR as an argument, it
+ can access any memory on the target, even if the processor has
+ separate code and data address spaces.
+
+ In this context, builtin_type->builtin_core_addr is a bit odd:

+ only used to hold the values of (typeless) linker symbols, which
