[PATCH] AIX native TLS support [3/?]

This patch gets GCC support for native TLS on AIX working and passing
most tests.

The patch shifts the creation of the qualified symbol name from
output_toc() to rs6000_legitimize_tls_address_aix(). I was hoping that
the separate SYMBOL_REF would prevent RTL fwprop from becoming
confused about the symbols, but no such luck. The re-write still makes
things a little cleaner.

Also, private TLS data (static variables with non-zero initializers)
are not decorated with the TLS CSECT qualifier so that the AIX
assembler and linker resolve it correctly.

To prevent fwprop from breaking things, I need to prevent
rs6000_delegitimize_address from associating TLS TOC references with
the original symbol. The rs6000 port uses the constant pool to manage
the TOC.  However, for TLS symbols, the value in the TOC is not
equivalent to the symbol itself. The RTL fwprop pass thinks that it
can associate the result of a TLS access, which materializes the
symbol in a register, with the value in the constant pool and avoid
re-loading the TOC value. This does not work and passes a garbage
value to subsequent TLS calls, which produce garbage results. The two
solutions are either "hide" the TLS constant pool values by not
delegitmizing them or completely re-writing the TOC support to use a
pool separate from the constant pool.  I chose the former because TLS
is a scarce resource and its usage should be minimal anyway.

Bootstrapped on powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.0.0.

Thanks, David

        * config/rs6000/rs6000.c (rs6000_deligitimze_address): Do not
        delegitimize TLS addresses on AIX.
        (rs6000_legitimize_tls_address_aix): Append TLS symbol qualifier.
        Set SYMBOL_FLAG_LOCAL on module symbol.
        (output_toc): Do not append TLS symbol qualifier here.
        * config/rs6000/rs6000.md (tls_get_addr_internal): Add GPR 4 to
        clobbers.
