H. Peter Anvin a9cfccee66 x86, build: Change code16gcc.h from a C header to an assembly header
By changing code16gcc.h from a C header to an assembly header and use
the -Wa,... option to gcc to force it to be added to the assembly
input, we can avoid the problems with gcc reordering code bits on us.

If we have -m16, we still use it, of course.

# code16gcc.h
#
# This file is added to the assembler via -Wa when compiling 16-bit C code.
# This is done this way instead via asm() to make sure gcc does not reorder
# things around us.
#
# gcc 4.9+ has a real -m16 option so we can drop this hack long term.
