Avoid 64-bit Solaris/SPARC -gstabs link failures (PR ld/12152)


As described in the PR, many 64-bit -gstabs* tests in the GCC testsuite
FAIL on Solaris/SPARC like this:

FAIL: gcc.dg/debug/20020220-1.c -gstabs1 (test for excess errors)
Excess errors:
/vol/gcc/src/hg/trunk/local/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/debug/20020220-1.c:19:(.stab+0x14): relocation truncated to fit: R_SPARC_UA32 against `.text'

and many more.

It seems this is a known issue and R_SPARC_32 relocs are already handled
in bfd/elfxx-sparc.c (_bfd_sparc_elf_relocate_section).  The following
patch handles R_SPARC_UA32 in the same way and makes all those failures
go away.

Ok for mainline (and eventually the 2.22 branch)?
