If linking in an object file without this attribute set, the
linker will assume that an executable stack might be needed.

This makes the generated assembly more internally consistent,
avoiding declaring two labels for the same function (for cases
where EXTERN_ASM is empty) and not declaring a separate unprefixed
label in other cases.
This also makes sure the .func and .type delcarations have the same
prefix. They have previously not been used on the platforms
that have prefixed symbols on arm (iOS), but gas-preprocessor
has recently started using the .func declarations for adding
.thumb_func declarations for such functions.

The function macro always sets .align 2 before declaring the
function label (since 5c5e1ea3) and always sets the section to
.text (since 278caa6a).
The .align 5 before certain functions, added in fc252eba, were added
before .text and .align were added to the function macro and thus
became useless/unused when the function macro got them.
This restores the original intention, to align the loop entry
points.

This matches the other eabi attribute in the same file. This is
required in order to build for arm/hardfloat with other object
file formats than ELF.

This is consistent with usual ARM nomenclature as well as with the
VFPV3 and NEON symbols which both lack the ARM prefix.

All our ARM asm preserves alignment so setting this attribute
in a common location is simpler. This removes numerous warnings
when linking with armcc.

LDR with register offset and PC as base register is not available in
the Thumb instruction set so the addition must be done separately.

When building Thumb2 code, the end of a function, where the PIC
offsets are placed, need not be aligned. Although the values
are only accessed with instructions allowing unaligned addresses,
keeping them aligned is preferable.

This creates proper position independent code when accessing
data symbols if CONFIG_PIC is set.
References to external symbols should now use the movrelx macro.
Some additional code changes are required since this macro may
need a register to hold the GOT pointer.
