MIPS should not be using BFD_RELOC_16 for its R_MIPS_16 relocation,
since R_MIPS_16 specifies a 16-bit field in a 32-bit word.
BFD_RELOC_16, emitted by generic code to handle fixups on 16-bit data
directives, expects fixups to operate on the whole of a 16-bit word.
This patch corrects the problem by using BFD_RELOC_MIPS_16, a new bfd
reloc that is used to generate R_MIPS_16. BFD_RELOC_16 is handled in
md_apply_fix for cases where the fixup can be applied at assembly
time. Like BFD_RELOC_8, BFD_RELOC_16 now has no corresponding object
file relocation, and thus .half, .hword, .short and .dc.w must be
resolved at assembly time. BFD_RELOC_MIPS_REL16 is removed by this
patch since it isn't used.
