Speed up Dhrystone on the HiFive1

There's a handful of things that went wrong here:

* The read-only data sections were mapped to flash, which is very slow.
  I just put them in the data segment, so they end up in the scratchpad.
  This is about a 10x hit, so it's really important.
* The toolchain was an old version, which didn't have a fast memcpy
  implementation on 32-bit systems.  This is about a 2x hit.
* Some compiler flags were incorrect, including
    * -Os instead of -O3
    * Missing -mexplicit-relocs
    * Missing -DNOENUM
    * Missing -falign-functions=4
  I haven't checked how much those hurt

With this, I get

$ make software BOARD=freedom-e300-hifive1 PROGRAM=dhrystone LINK_TARGET=dhrystone
$ make upload BOARD=freedom-e300-hifive1 PROGRAM=dhrystone LINK_TARGET=dhrystone
Execution starts, 10000000 runs through Dhrystone
Execution ends

Final values of the variables used in the benchmark:

Int_Glob:            5
        should be:   5

Microseconds for one run through Dhrystone: 1.3
Dhrystones per Second:                      714285.6

which is 1.55 DMIPS/MHz at 262 MHz.  It's still a bit slower than our
current stuff, but I don't remember what was actually in the HiFive1 so
I'm not sure what we should be getting.  I verified the clock is
accurate with a stopwatch.  I haven't bothered to go look through the
binary, but I think we're about 10 cycles off so it should be managable.
