MC only needs to know if the output is PIC or not. It never has to
decide about creating GOTs and PLTs for example. The only thing that
MC itself uses this information for is expanding "macros" in sparc and
mips. The rest I am pretty sure could be moved to CodeGen.
This is a cleanup and isolates the code from future changes to
Reloc::Model.

Summary:
Direct object emission has an initialization order problem where an
InitMCObjectFile is called after MipsTargetELFStreamer determines whether
PIC is enabled by default or not. There doesn't seem to be point that
initializes all cases so split the responsibility between
MipsTargetELFStreamer and MipsAsmPrinter.
