[rx] avoid long calls

Immediate mode jumps have limits; this new option tells gcc to avoid
those instructions (by using indirect mode ones) in those rare cases
where the user has a program that big.  Committed.

	* config/rx/rx.opt (-mjsr): Add.
	* config/rx/predicates.md (rx_call_operand): Avoid overflowing
	calls when -mjsr.
	* config/rx/rx.c (rx_function_ok_for_sibcall): Likewise for
	overflowing jumps.
	* doc/invoke.texi (-mjsr): Document it.
