Revert patch for PR 19119, which led to PR 19172 and 19197.
Gold does not support all the emulations that Gnu ld does, and supports
only one spelling per target. The -m option is used only in the rare case
where there are no ELF input files, and we produce an empty output file.
In those cases, users are expected to supply a -m option naming one of
the supported emulations. In the many cases where a build script provides
an unnecessary -m option naming an emulation that gold does not support,
we will simply ignore the option, as we did before the reverted patch.

* options.h (General_options): Remove "obsolete" from -m.
* parameters.cc (set_parameters_target): Check if input target
is compatible with output emulation set by "-m emulation".
