Andrew Burgess 66f8b2cbbb gas: Add --gdwarf-cie-version command line flag
Add a flag to control the version of CIE that is generated.  By
default gas produces CIE version 1, and this continues to be the
default after this patch.

However, a user can now provide --gdwarf-cie-version=NUMBER to switch
to either version 3 or version 4 of CIE, version 2 was never released,
and so causes an error as does any number less than 1 or greater than
4.

Producing version 4 CIE requires two new fields to be added to the
CIE, an address size field, and an segment selector field.  For a flat
address space the DWARF specification indicates that the segment
selector should be 0, and the address size fields just contains the
address size in bytes.  For now we support 4 or 8 byte addresses, and
the segment selector is always produced as 0.  At some future time we
might need to allow targets to override this.
