[RFA] Reenable mov lowreg, lowreg for Thumb when no -mcpu specified on command line.

All,

The recent change to disallow mov lowreg, lowreg in Thumb pre-v6 
unfortunately stopped the assembler accepting this form of mov when no 
CPU had been specified on the command-line.  This was noticed as the 
testsuite test "Invalid SP and PC operands test - THUMB" started failing.

The attached patch fixes this and also ensures we note we have used a v6 
feature so that the output attributes are set correctly in this case.

This was tested arm-none-eabi.

Can someone please review?

Thanks,
