David Peixotto 1edc33b924 ARM integrated assembler generates incorrect nop opcode
This patch fixes a bug in the assembler that was causing bad code to
be emitted.  When switching modes in an assembly file (e.g. arm to
thumb mode) we would always emit the opcode from the original mode.

Consider this small example:

$ cat align.s
.code 16
foo:
  add r0, r0
.align 3
  add r0, r0

$ llvm-mc -triple armv7-none-linux align.s -filetype=obj -o t.o
$ llvm-objdump -triple thumbv7 -d t.o
Disassembly of section .text:
foo:
       0:       00 44         add     r0, r0
       2:       00 f0 20 e3   blx #4195904
       6:       00 00         movs    r0, r0
       8:       00 44         add     r0, r0

This shows that we have actually emitted an arm nop (e320f000)
instead of a thumb nop. Unfortunately, this encodes to a thumb
branch which causes bad things to happen when compiling assembly
code with align directives.

The fix is to notify the ARMAsmBackend when we switch mode. The
MCMachOStreamer was already doing this correctly. This patch makes
the same change for the MCElfStreamer.

There is still a bug in the way nops are emitted for alignment
because the MCAlignment fragment does not store the correct mode.
The ARMAsmBackend will emit nops for the last mode it knew about. In
the example above, we still generate an arm nop if we add a `.code
32` to the end of the file.
