Merge binutils 2.17.50 to head. This brings a number of improvements to
x86 CPU support, better support for powerpc64, some new directives, and
many other things. Bump __FreeBSD_version, and add a note to UPDATING.

Thanks to the many people that have helped to test this.

Revive files which were pulled from the vendor branch only to be
removed on HEAD, but which are part of the GDB 6.1.1 import. This
makes HEAD identical to the vendor branch, for better or for
worse.
