gas: allow labeling of CFI instructions

When runtime patching code (like e.g. done by the Linux kernel) there
may be cases where the set of stack frame alterations differs between
unpatched and patched code. Consequently the corresponding unwind data
needs patching too. Locating the right places within an FDE, however,
is rather cumbersome without a way to insert labels in the resulting
section. Hence this patch introduces a new directive, .cfi_label. Note
that with the way CFI data gets emitted currently (at the end of the
assembly process) this can't support local FB- and dollar-labels.
