x86, build: Change code16gcc.h from a C header to an assembly header
By changing code16gcc.h from a C header to an assembly header and use the -Wa,... option to gcc to force it to be added to the assembly input, we can avoid the problems with gcc reordering code bits on us. If we have -m16, we still use it, of course. Suggested-by: Kevin O'Connor <kevin@koconnor.net> Signed-off-by: H.
