    mips: Do not use jal to reach __libc_start_main

    Since __libc_start_main may not be in the same 256MB-aligned region as
    the function __start, replace use of jal instruction with la/jalr.

    This fixes linker issue reported in:
    https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17601

        [BZ #17601]
        * sysdeps/mips/start.S (__start): Use indirect jump to call
        __libc_start_main.
