[PATCH] small GAS doc changes

- Subject: [PATCH] small GAS doc changes
- Organization: Tensilica, Inc.
While merging the recent Xtensa changes, I discovered some small doc fixes in my
source tree.
The index entries for vtable_entry and vtable_inherit are inconsistent from all
the other directive index entries because they don't include "directive" after
the directive name.
The Acknowledgements section mostly uses "GAS" to refer to the assembler, but
there are a few instances of "@command{@value{AS}}". These look funny when the
AS variable is redefined to something other than its default value. (Tensilica
calls its Xtensa cross assembler "xt-as".)
The patch fixes both of these problems.
OK?

* doc/as.texinfo (VTableEntry, VTableInherit): Add "directive" to index
entries.
(Acknowledgements): Use "GAS" instead of AS variable.
