r248276 - [mips] Added support for using the command line options -Wa, -msoft-float and -Wa, -mhard-float.

[Renato Golin via llvm-commits]

I agree. We really don't want to support arm flags on Intel and vice versa.
But also, we don't want to slow down simpler targets because of arm/mips
excessively detailed target description. :-)

However, we should be conservative on how we test the target in here. We
don't want yet another large switch or string parsing just to avoid one or
two flags.

Cheers,
Renato
