These were:
* noreorder handling on the target object streamer and asm parser.
* setting the initial flag bits based on the enabled features.
* setting the elf header flag for micromips
It is *really* depressing I am the one doing this instead of someone at
mips actually taking the time to understand the infrastructure.

r200064 depends on r200051.
r200051 is broken: I tries to replace .mips_hack_elf_flags, which is a good
thing, but what it replaces it with is even worse.
The new emitMipsELFFlags it adds corresponds to no assembly directive, is not
marked as a hack and is not even printed to the .s file.
The patch also introduces more uses of hasRawTextSupport.
The correct way to remove .mips_hack_elf_flags is to have the mips target
streamer handle the default flags (and command line options). That way the
same code path is used for asm and obj. The streamer interface should *really*
correspond to what is printed in the .s file.

This patch uses a common MipsTargetSteamer interface for both
MipsAsmPrinter and MipsAsmParser for recording default and commandline
driven directives that affect ELF header flags.
It has been noted that the .ll tests affected by this patch belong in
test/Codegen/Mips. I will move them in a separate patch.
Also, a number of directives do not get expressed by AsmPrinter in the
resultant .s assembly such as setting the correct ASI. I have noted this
in the tests and they will be addressed in later patches.

This patch updates .set mips16 support which
affects the ELF ABI and its flags. In addition the patch uses
a common interface for both the MipsTargetSteamer and
MipsObjectStreamer that the assembler uses for
both ELF and ASCII output for these directives.

This patch adds .abicalls and .set pic0 support which
affects the ELF ABI and its flags. In addition the patch uses
a common interface for both the MipsTargetSteamer and
MipsObjectStreamer that both the integrated and standalone
assemblers will use for the output for these directives.

No true functional changes.
Change the "hack" name of emitMipsHackSTOCG to emitSymSTO.
Remove demonstration code in AsmParser for emitMipsHackSTOCG and
emitMipsHackELFFlags. The STO field is in an ELF symbol and is not
an explicit directive. That said, we are missing the compliment call
in AsmParser and that will need to be addressed soon.
XFAIL dummy tests for emitMipsHackELFFlags and emitMipsHackELFFlags.
These will built out with following patches.

When MC was first added, targets could use hasRawTextSupport to keep features
working before they were added to the MC interface.
The design goal of MC is to provide an uniform api for printing assembly and
object files. Short of relaxations and other corner cases, a object file is
just another representation of the assembly.
It was never the intention that targets would keep doing things like
if (hasRawTextSupport())
Set flags in one way.
else
Set flags in another way.
When they do that they create two code paths and the object file is no longer
just another representation of the assembly. This also then requires testing
with llc -filetype=obj, which is extremelly brittle.
This patch removes some of these hacks by replacing them with smaller ones.
The ARM flag setting is trivial, so I just moved it to the constructor. For
Mips, the patch adds two temporary hack directives that allow the assembly
to represent the same things as the object file was already able to.
The hope is that the mips developers will replace the hack directives with
the same ones that gas uses and drop the -print-hack-directives flag.
I will also try to implement a target streamer interface, so that we can
move this out of the common code.
In summary, for any new work, two rules of the thumb are
* Don't use "llc -filetype=obj" in tests.
* Don't add calls to hasRawTextSupport.
