[committed] RISC-V: Adjust long unconditional branch sequence

[Jeff Law]

Andrew and I independently noted the long unconditional branch sequence 
was using the "call" pseudo op.  Technically it works, but it's a bit 
odd.  This patch flips it to use the "jump" pseudo-op.

This was tested with a hacked-up local compiler which forced all 
branches/jumps to be long jumps.  Naturally it triggered some failures 
for scan-asm tests but no execution regressions (which is mostly what I 
was testing for).

I've updated the long branch support item in the RISE wiki to indicate 
that we eventually want a register scavenging approach with a fallback 
to $ra in the future so that we don't muck up the return address 
predictors.  It's not super-high priority and shouldn't be terrible to 
implement given we've got the $ra fallback when a suitable register can 
not be found.


Pushed to the trunk,
