    PR30724, cygwin ld performance regression since 014a602b86

    According to the reporter of this bug the newlib fseek implementation
    is likely slowed down by locking and fflush, only attempting to
    optimise seeks when the file is opened read-only.  Thus when writing
    the output we get a dramatic slowdown due to commit 014a602b86.

            * bfd.c (enum bfd_last_io): New.
            (struct bfd): Add last_io field.
            * bfd-in2.h: Regenerate.
            * bfd-io.c (bfd_bread, bfd_bwrite): Force seek if last_io is
            opposite direction.
            (bfd_seek): Reinstate optimisation for seek to same position.
