  1. Drop mips*le triple pattern, which will consider as big endian
   by other components of binutils.
2. Use EM_MIPS instead of EM_MIPS_RS3_LE for little endian.
   EM_MIPS_RS3_LE has been deprecated quite long ago, and in fact
   most of current LE ELF files are using EM_MIPS.
3. Add targ_extra_size=64 for mips32 triples.
4. Add targ_extra_little_endian=true for big endian triples.
5. Add mips64 triples support, and define targ_extra_little_endian/
   targ_extra_big_endian, and targ_extra_size=32.

Let's use `targ_extra_little_endian` in configure.ac/configure,
so that littlen endian can be enabled if the targets are all big endian.

@Maciej W. Rozycki How about this patch?

@Nick Clifton Is there any policy of backport policy of 2.41?
If OK, I'd like to backport this patch to 2.41. As it is really a bug:
   ../configure --enable-targets=mipsel-linux-gnu only will fail to build.

See:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1049455
and
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=binutils-mipsen&arch=amd64&ver=10%2Bc5&stamp=1692086940&raw=0

 This will have to be split as I previously outlined.  Also I won't have 
any time to review patches in the next few weeks as I am out of capacity 
right now.

Generally, we should split patches by code logic, instead of make it fragments.
For distrubutions, cherry-pick patches from master is needed usally.
Fragmental patches will make lots of trobule to them.

We should have a trade off, instead of be extrame.
