Subject: [PATCH: RL78] Optimize libgcc routines using clrw and clrb

Hi,
Please find below a simple patch which optimizes the loading of immediate value by using the clrw or clrb instruction in case a 0x00 is being loaded into the register.
The patch replaces movw/mov instruction with the smaller clrw/clrb instruction.
The clrw and clrb generates only 1 byte of opcode as compared to 3 or 2 bytes for movw and mov.

There is a total of about 94 bytes code size improvement with this patch in these libgcc routines.
