Add support for defering line number table construction to assembler.

	* dwarf2out.c (DWARF2_ASM_LINE_DEBUG_INFO): Add default definition.
	(debug_dwarf): Add DWARF2_ASM_LINE_DEBUG_INFO support.
	(dwarf2out_line, dwarf2out_finish): Likewise.
	* tm.texi (DWARF2_ASM_LINE_DEBUG_INFO): Add documetation.
