tools/nolibc: enable support for thumb1 mode for ARM

Browse source 
Passing -mthumb to the kernel.org arm toolchain failed to build because it
defaults to armv5 hence thumb1, which has a fairly limited instruction set
compared to thumb2 enabled with armv7 that is much more complete. It's not
very difficult to adjust the instructions to also build on thumb1, it only
adds a total of 3 instructions, so it's worth doing it at least to ease use
by casual testers. It was verified that the adjusted code now builds and
works fine for armv5, thumb1, armv7 and thumb2, as long as frame pointers
are not used.
