Handle DW_OP_form_tls_address

Currently gdb supports DW_OP_GNU_push_tls_address, but not
DW_OP_form_tls_address.  I think it would be better if the toolchain
as a whole moved to using the standard opcode, and the prerequisite to
this is getting gdb to recognize it.

GCC can sometimes emit DW_OP_form_tls_address for emultls targets.  As
far as I know, nobody has ever tried this with gdb (since it wouldn't
work at all).

I don't think there's a major drawback to using a single opcode for
all targets, because computing the location of a thread-local is
already target specific.

This is PR gdb/11616.

I don't know how to write a test case for this; though it's worth
noting that there aren't explicit tests for DW_OP_GNU_push_tls_address
either -- and if I change GCC, these paths will be tested to the same
extent they are now.
