Implement the '.nop SIZE[, CONTROL]' assembler directive, which emits
SIZE bytes filled with no-op instructions.  SIZE is absolute expression.
The optional CONTROL byte controls how no-op instructions should be
generated.  If the comma and @var{control} are omitted, CONTROL is
assumed to be zero.

For Intel 80386 and AMD x86-64 targets, CONTROL byte specifies the size
limit of a single no-op instruction.  The valid values of CONTROL byte
are between 0 and 8 for 16-bit mode, between 0 and 10 for 32-bit mode,
between 0 and 11 for 64-bit mode.  When 0 is used, the no-op size limit
is set to the maximum supported size.

2 new relax states, rs_space_nop and rs_fill_nop, are added to enum
_relax_state, which are similar to rs_space and rs_fill, respectively,
but they fill with no-op instructions, instead of a single byte.  A
target backend must override the default md_generate_nops to generate
proper no-op instructions.  Otherwise, an error of unimplemented .nop
directive will be issued whenever .nop directive is used.
