[Darwin, committed] The need for picsym stubs is dependent on linker used, not OS rev.

This is one in a series of changes to make the operation of the Darwin back-
end, depend on configuration-determined data, rather than guessing on the
basis of the OS version we are generating code for.
For very old toolchains, the compiler generated pic symbol stubs that
provide indirections for external symbols. We no longer need this (since
xcode 3 era) and it's more efficient for the linker to make one stub when it
knows a symbol is needed that for us to emit them speculatively in every
object.
Our current codegen is making the assumption that a specific OS version
uses a specific linker version - and therefore the presence of support
could be based on the target OS rev. Of course, that's way too simplistic
(most likely bogus for cross-toolchains) and we want to make things explicit.
Since we have detection of the linker version, we can use that directly
(A config test for support for stub-less linking might also be feasible
but much more involved).
Finally, should the user wish to generate code that caters for export to
use in an environment with an older toolchain, the generation of stubs
can be forced from the command line.
In addition to the points above, branch islanding and a long branch opt
for PowerPC Darwin has become conflated with the emission of these stubs
(which is confusing, and will be rectified in a following patch).

* config/darwin.c (machopic_indirect_call_target): Use renamed
darwin_picsymbol_stubs to decide on output.
(darwin_override_options): Handle darwin_picsymbol_stubs.
* config/darwin.h (MIN_LD64_OMIT_STUBS): New.
(LD64_VERSION): Revise default.
* config/darwin.opt: (mpic-symbol-stubs): New option.
(darwin_picsymbol_stubs): New variable.
* config/i386/darwin.h (TARGET_MACHO_BRANCH_ISLANDS):
rename to TARGET_MACHO_PICSYM_STUBS.
* config/i386/i386.c (output_pic_addr_const): Likewise.
* config/i386/i386.h Likewise.
* config/rs6000/darwin.h: Likewise.
* config/rs6000/rs6000.c (rs6000_call_darwin_1): Use renamed
darwin_picsymbol_stubs.
