MIPS: Add options to control branch ISA checks

Complement commit 9d862524f6ae ("MIPS: Verify the ISA mode and alignment
of branch and jump targets") and add GAS and LD options to control the
checks for invalid branches between ISA modes introduced there, to help
with some handwritten code lacking `.insn' annotation for labels used as
branch targets and code produced by older versions of GCC which suffers
from the issue with branches to code that has been optimized away,
addressed with GCC commit 242424 ("MIPS/GCC: Mark trailing labels with
`.insn'"), <https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2016-11/msg01061.html>.

	bfd/
	* elfxx-mips.h (_bfd_mips_elf_insn32): Rename prototype to...
	(_bfd_mips_elf_linker_flags): ... this.  Add another parameter.
	* elfxx-mips.c (mips_elf_link_hash_table): Add
	`ignore_branch_isa' member.
	(mips_elf_perform_relocation): Do not treat an ISA mode mismatch
	in branch relocation calculation as an error if
	`ignore_branch_isa' has been set.
	(_bfd_mips_elf_insn32): Rename to...
	(_bfd_mips_elf_linker_flags): ... this.  Rename the `on'
	parameter to `insn32' and add an `ignore_branch_isa' parameter.
	Handle the new parameter.

	* config/tc-mips.c (mips_ignore_branch_isa): New variable.
	(options): Add OPTION_IGNORE_BRANCH_ISA and

	(md_parse_option): Handle OPTION_IGNORE_BRANCH_ISA and
	OPTION_NO_IGNORE_BRANCH_ISA.
	(fix_bad_cross_mode_branch_p): Return FALSE if
	`mips_ignore_branch_isa' has been set.

	`-mno-ignore-branch-isa'.

	* doc/as.texinfo (Target MIPS options): Add

	ld/
	* emultempl/mipself.em (ignore_branch_isa): New variable.
	(mips_create_output_section_statements): Rename
	`_bfd_mips_elf_insn32' called to `_bfd_mips_elf_linker_flags',
	add `ignore_branch_isa' argument.
	(PARSE_AND_LIST_PROLOGUE): Add OPTION_IGNORE_BRANCH_ISA and
	OPTION_NO_IGNORE_BRANCH_ISA enum values.
	(PARSE_AND_LIST_LONGOPTS): Add "ignore-branch-isa" and
