Add .interp back into INITIAL_READONLY_SECTIONS in MIPS n64 ABI.

The binutils update in r218822 caused the MIPS n64 dynamic binaries to
fail because the ".interp" section is not in the initial sections.
This happens because elf64bmip-defs.sh overrides INITIAL_READONLY_SECTIONS
to add ".MIPS.options" sections instead of the ".reginfo" section used
by n32.
This used to work fine, but after r218822, INITIAL_READONLY_SECTIONS also
contains the .interp section, so the override has to be done differently.

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.

Merge ^/vendor/binutils/dist@214571 into contrib/binutils, which brings
us up to version 2.17.50.20070703, at the last GPLv2 commit.

Amongst others, this added upstream support for some FreeBSD-specific
things that we previously had to manually hack in, such as the OSABI
label support, and so on.

There are also quite a number of new files, some for cpu's (e.g. SPU)
that we may or may not be interested in, but those can be cleaned up
later on, if needed.

Import the binutils master branch from the sourceware CVS repository,
exactly as it was on Tue, 3 Jul 2007 07:54:19 +0000.

Corresponds to git commit 397a64b350470350c8e0adb2af84439ea0f89272,
which was the last commit before switching to GPLv3.
