ar is supposed to make archives containing any sort of file, and it
generally does that. It also tries to make archives suited to target
object files stored. Some targets have peculiar archives.
In one particular case we get into trouble trying to suit archives to
object files: where the target object file is recognised but that
target doesn't happen to support archives, and the default target has
a special archive format. For example, we'll get failures on
rs6000-aix if trying to add tekhex objects to a new archive. What
happens in that the tekhex object is recognised and its target vector
used to create an empty archive, ie. with _bfd_generic_mkarchive and
_bfd_write_archive_contents. An attempt is then made to open the
newly created archive. The tekhex target vector does not have a
check_format function to recognise generic archives, nor as it happens
do any of the xcoff or other targets built for rs6000-aix.
It seems to me the simplest fix is to not use any target vector to
create archives where that vector can't also recognise them. That's
what this patch does, and to reinforce that I've removed target vector
support for creating empty archives from such targets.

Since ar can be built defaulting to deterministic mode, tests which
expect non-deterministic behaviour need to explicitly set the U flag.
The non-deterministic member test expects SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH to not be
set; this documents that. Unconditionally unsetting the variable
causes issues in test infrastructure (which expects unsetenv to only
be called on variables which are already set).

Adds two new external authors to etc/update-copyright.py to cover
bfd/ax_tls.m4, and adds gprofng to dirs handled automatically, then
updates copyright messages as follows:
1) Update cgen/utils.scm emitted copyrights.
2) Run "etc/update-copyright.py --this-year" with an extra external
author I haven't committed, 'Kalray SA.', to cover gas testsuite
files (which should have their copyright message removed).
3) Build with --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-cgen-maint=yes.
4) Check out */po/*.pot which we don't update frequently.
The newer update-copyright.py fixes file encoding too, removing cr/lf
on binutils/bfdtest2.c and ld/testsuite/ld-cygwin/exe-export.exp, and
embedded cr in binutils/testsuite/binutils-all/ar.exp string match.
In many ar implementations (FreeBSD, elfutils, etc), -T has the X/Open
System Interface specified semantics. Therefore -T for thin archives is
not recommended for portability. -T is deprecated without diagnostics.

You'd think "unresolved" would be correct for an objcopy test when the
assembler refuses to assemble one of our source files. After all, the
test of objcopy hasn't been run. However, "unresolved" results in
runtest returning with an error status. If instead we report
"unsupported", runtest returns success. Which is a little less
confusing to a user who doesn't see any errors reported unless they
look in log files.

There are a number of targets that don't support thin archives (*),
and vms doesn't even support file name extensions other than .obj for
archives containing object files. This patch adjusts the testsuite
to cater for the vms restriction, and reenables testing for non-ELF
alpha targets. That adds a few alpha-dec-vms fails and one
alpha-linuxecoff fail but testsuite fails on those targets are nothing
new.

--enable-plugins but the plugin archive support is broken, causing the
wrong type of archives to be created by ar for those targets.

This is a followup to "binutils nm testsuite tidy". Since the perror
in binutils_assemble has been removed, we need to take more care in
failure paths.

where an assembly failure returns from the .exp file. In most cases
it is nicer to attempt all tests.
