[RISCV] Add "lla" pseudo-instruction to assembler
This pseudo-instruction is similar to la but uses PC-relative addressing unconditionally. This is, la is only different to lla when using -fPIC. This pseudo-instruction seems often forgotten in several specs but it is definitely mentioned in binutils opcodes/riscv-opc.c. The semantics are defined both in page 37 of the "RISC-V Reader" book but also in function macro found in gas/config/tc-riscv.c. This is a very first step towards adding PIC support for Linux in the RISC-V backend. The lla pseudo-instruction expands to a sequence of auipc + addi with a couple of pc-rel relocations where the second points to the first one. This is described in https://github.com/riscv/riscv-elf-psabi-doc/blob/master/riscv-elf.md#pc-relative-symbol-addresses For now, this patch only introduces support of that pseudo instruction at the assembler parser.
