This aims to bring the linker for big-endian arc targets into line with
the linker for (the default) little endian arc targets.
The bulk of the changes are to extend the target pattern in the test
files from 'arc-*...' to 'arc*-*...' and so match both big and little
endian arc targets.
In the ld/emulparams/ directory the existing scripts checked for a
variable ARC_ENDIAN to switch between big and little endian targets,
however, this variable is never set up.
So, a new script snippet is introduced which sets up ARC_ENDIAN based on
the value of target, this snippet is then included from all of the
existing arc scripts.
The existing big-endian variants of all the scripts, which existed, but
were never used, are deleted in this commit.

The new orphan handling tests added in commit c005eb9 fail on a range of
targets. Some of the failures were fixed in commit e32aa93 but not
all. This commit should address the remaining failures.
Update results to account for orphan sections being placed in different
orders, and for other, target specific sections, being discarded.
ld/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* ld-elf/orphan-7.map: Allow for other discarded sections.
* ld-elf/orphan-8.map: Updated to allow for different section
ordering on different targets.
* ld-elf/orphan.ld: Place .sbss section.
Replace the options --warn-orphan and --no-warn-orphan with a single
option --orphan-handling=MODE, where mode can be place, warn, error, and
discard.
Mode 'place' is the default, and is the current behaviour, placing the
orphan section into a suitable output section.
Mode 'warn' is the same as '--warn-orphan'. The orphan is also placed
using the same algorithm as for 'place'.
Mode 'error' is the same as '--warn-orphan' and '--fatal-warnings'.
Mode 'discard' assigns all output sections to the /DISCARD/ section.
