Hello,

This patch removes all calls to assemble_external from places other
than final.c and MI-thunk generators.

This is step 2 toward addressing PR17982 on the trunk for GCC 4.8. The
next, and final, step will be to change pending_assemble_externals to
pending_assemble_visibility, and fold assemble_external_real() back
into assemble_external.

Bootstrapped & tested all default languages on
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu and on powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu.

Also cross-built c and c++ to mips-elf and tested on mips-sim
(mips-elf was the only target I could find that really emits something
for its ASM_OUTPUT_EXTERNAL target macro and has a sim in gdb. I
hard-coded mips_output_external, by replacing "if
(!TARGET_EXPLICIT_RELOCS && ..." with "if (1 && ...").

OK for trunk?

Ciao!
Steven
