Complement commit
919731affbef ("Add MIPS .module directive") and update
the GAS manual to refer to the `.module' rather than `.set' directive in
command-line option descriptions, following an observation that unlike
`.set' and like the respective command-line option the use of the
`.module' directive affects the ISA and ASE flags recorded in the object
file produced, and therefore it is `.module' rather than `.set' that
corresponds to the respective command-line option.

* doc/as.texinfo (-mips16, -no-mips16): Refer to `.module
mips16' rather than `.set mips16'.
(-mmicromips, -mno-micromips): Refer to `.module micromips' and

nomicromips'.
(-msmartmips, -mno-smartmips): Refer to `.module smartmips'
rather than `.set smartmips'.

`.module micromips', `.module nomicromips' and `.module
smartmips' rather than `.set mips16', `.set micromips', `.set
nomicromips' and `.set smartmips' respectively.
