This patch provides initial implementation of load address
macro instruction for Mips. We have implemented two kinds
of expansions with their variations depending on the size
of immediate operand:
1) load address with immediate value directly:
* la d,j => addiu d,$zero,j (for -32768 <= j <= 65535)
* la d,j => lui d,hi16(j)
ori d,d,lo16(j) (for any other 32 bit value of j)
2) load load address with register offset value
* la d,j(s) => addiu d,s,j (for -32768 <= j <= 65535)
* la d,j(s) => lui d,hi16(j) (for any other 32 bit value of j)
ori d,d,lo16(j)
addu d,d,s
This patch does not cover the case when the address is loaded
from the value of the label or function.

macro instruction (li) in the assembler.
We have identified three possible expansions depending on
the size of immediate operand:
1) for 0 ≤ j ≤ 65535.
li d,j =>
ori d,$zero,j
2) for −32768 ≤ j < 0.
li d,j =>
addiu d,$zero,j
3) for any other value of j that is representable as a 32-bit integer.
li d,j =>
lui d,hi16(j)
ori d,d,lo16(j)
All of the above have been implemented in ths patch.

.set option
The patch implements following options
at - lets the assembler use the $at register for macros,
but generates warnings if the source program uses $at
noat - let source programs use $at without issuingwarnings.
noreorder - prevents the assembler from reordering machine
language instructions.
nomacro - causes the assembler to print a warning whenever
an assembler operation generates more than one
machine language instruction.
macro - lets the assembler generate multiple machine instructions
from a single assembler instruction
reorder - lets the assembler reorder machine language
instructions to improve performance
The above variants are parsed and their boolean values set or unset.
The code to actually use them will come later.
Following options are not implemented yet:
nomips16
nomicromips
move
nomove

map constraints and MCInst operands to inline asm operands. This replaces the
getMCInstOperandNum() function.
The logic to determine the constraints are not in place, so we still default to
a register constraint (i.e., "r"). Also, we no longer build the MCInst but
rather return just the opcode to get the MCInstrDesc.

Actually these are just stubs for parsing the directives.
Semantic support will come later.
