For expressions like [foo - $] or [bar - $$] our relocation base is
not the same as the end of the instruction. Make that explicit.

Handle, hopefully correctly, self-relative expressions (that is,
expressions of the form X - Y where Y is a symbol in the current
segment, possibly $ or $$) used as offsets or immediates, as opposed
to arguments to Dx statements (which have already been supported for a
while.)

Allow constructs like:
dd foo - $
... where foo is an external symbol. Currently this is only
implemented for extops, i.e. dx opcodes.

We search the dependency list anyway (ouch...) so we might as well
use that instead of keeping track of a tail pointer.

We have been doing a pathname search every time we encounter a file,
which means every file in every pass. Instead, put the pathnames
found in a hash table.

This provides the first pass of assembler internals for a new, richer,
backend interface. It also reduces the amount of data carried in
function parameters inside the assembler.
The new interface is in the form of a structure, which will contain
substantially more information that the previous interface. This will
allow things like ELF GOT32X and Mach-O X86_64_RELOC_BRANCH
relocations to be reliably emitted.
This provides the initial set of structures. Future additions should
include:
1. Pass down the base symbol, if any.
2. Segments should be a structure rather than a number, and the
horrible hack of adding one for a segment reference should be
removed (OUT_SEGMENT replaces it.)

Make the source code easier to understand and keep track of by
organizing it into subdirectories depending on the function.
