OR32 assembler cannot generate DWARF2 line debug info sections #128

<p>
The OR32 assembler cannot generate DWARF2 debug info. That is it does not support the following directives correctly: .file .loc, .loc_mark_labels.
</p>
<p>
These directives probably generate incorrect information, rather than not being implemented, since the effect is that GDB behaves incorrectly, rather than complaining about invalid or missing information.
<p>
<p>
This functionality is required for more compact DWARF2 debug tables from GCC. However GCC can work without this functionality, so it has been disabled in the current OR32 GCC.
