This patch is necessary for proper support of targets that don't directly
implement unaligned accesses.
Tested with a linux+busybox build and boot, and a gcc testsuite run. There
were no regressions. Also tested by hand on some small testcases to verify
that it was doing something useful. Committed.

* config/riscv/riscv.c (riscv_option_override): Conditionally set
TARGET_STRICT_ALIGN based upon -mtune argument.
Backport from mainline
2017-05-04 Andrew Waterman <andrew@sifive.com>
* config/riscv/riscv.opt (mstrict-align): New option.
* config/riscv/riscv.h (STRICT_ALIGNMENT): Use it. Update comment.
(SLOW_UNALIGNED_ACCESS): Define.
(riscv_slow_unaligned_access): Declare.
* config/riscv/riscv.c (riscv_tune_info): Add slow_unaligned_access
field.
(riscv_slow_unaligned_access): New variable.
(rocket_tune_info): Set slow_unaligned_access to true.
(optimize_size_tune_info): Set slow_unaligned_access to false.
(riscv_cpu_info_table): Add entry for optimize_size_tune_info.
(riscv_valid_lo_sum_p): Use TARGET_STRICT_ALIGN.
(riscv_option_override): Set riscv_slow_unaligned_access.
* doc/invoke.texi: Add -mstrict-align to RISC-V.
