MachO has this odd thing called "subsections via symbols", by which a
symbol can magically start what effectively is a new section. To
support this, add support for a calldown into the backend when a new
symbol is defined *at the current output location*, and allow it to
switch the current segment.

Automatically assign values to the instruction flags; we ended up with
a case where pushing flags into the next dword caused comparison
failures due to other places in the code explicitly comparing
field[3].
This creates necessary defines for this not to happen; it also cleans
up a fair bit of the iflag code.
This resolves BR 3392454.

For some output types, the bit size, globalbits, follow the section
(segment); make sure we actually update it!

For many (most?) targets these will be very small functions, so inline
them. However, just in case make these external library functions.

Add a generic facility for generating perfect string hashes, where all
that is needed is an enum and a string table. The existing mechanism
using a custom Perl script wrapped around a module continues to be
available for any use case where this particular approach isn't
sophisticated enough.
Much of this patch comes from renaming "enum directives" to "enum
directive" as a result of the string hash generator expecting a set of
uniform naming conventions.

Make -Werror possible to control on a per-warning-class basis. While
I was fixing up that code anyway, merge the handling of the -w, -W and
[warning] argument and directives.
Furthermore, make *all* warnings suppressible; any warning that isn't
categorized now belong to category "other". However, for cleanliness
sake an "other" option does not get listed in the warning messages.

The directives code is already trying to do a bit more unified error
handling, so give ourselves a bit richer interface. At this point,
the conversion was pretty automatic so we probably return DIRR_OK
instead of DIRR_ERROR in a fair number of places, but that's okay.

Move directive processing to its own file, and move nasmlib/error.c to
asm/error.c (it was not used by the disassembler); remove some extern
declarations from .c files, and do some general code cleanups.
