GNU as has "la %r4,8(%r3)" as an alias for "addi %r4,%r3,8", meaning
to load the address of the thing at 8(%r3). Our 'la', now 'li32',
makes an addis/ori pair to load an immediate 32-bit value. For
example, "li32 r4,23456789" loads a big number.
Inspired by the sparc code (mach/sparc/libem/lar.s). My powerpc code
might still have bugs, but it's enough for examples/hilo.mod to work.
May need to 'make clean' or touch a build.lua file, so ackbuilder can
notice the new lar4.s and sar4.s files and build them.
calculated incorrectly because of overflow errors.
Replace it with an extended RELOPPC relocation which understands addis/ori
pairs; add an la pseudoop to the assembler which generates these and the
appropriate relocation. Make good.
