Patches for tm.texi: INCLUDE_DEFAULTS, STRUCT_FORCE_BLK, TARGET_...


A few (admittedly different) tweaks in tm.texi, that need
approval as a whole.

- STRUCT_FORCE_BLK was seemingly spuriously introduced in the
  middle of the description for the INCLUDE_DEFAULTS macro,
  which apart from that also seems the wrong section; the best
  place is IMHO in the Storage Layout section.

- Other tweaks, fixed typos in INCLUDE_DEFAULTS.

- Suggestion to use helper macros for bit-values in
  TARGET_... and TARGET_SWITCHES.  FWIW, I believe this was
  found to be a Good Thing(tm) some (long) time ago.

Ok to install?

	* tm.texi (Driver): Fix typos and tweak entry for
	INCLUDE_DEFAULTS.
	Move misplaced STRUCT_FORCE_BLK entry ...
	(Storage Layout): ... to here.
	(Run-time Target): Recommend having TARGET_MASK_... helper macros.

  Each array element should have four elements: the directory name (a

  the array with a null element.
  
  The component name denotes what GNU package the include file is part of,
