[PATCH] Replace bltzal with lapc for MIPS R6 builds.

The R6 version of MIPS does not support the bltzal instruction.  This
patch changes dl-startup.h and dl-sysdep.h to use lapc on R6 instead.
lapc is a new R6 insruction so older systems need to continue to use
bltzal in order to load register $31.
