The minuend (but not the subtrahend) can reference a section.
Note that we do not yet properly validate that the subtrahend isn't
referencing a section; I've filed PR50034 to track that.
I've also extended the reloc-subtractor.s test to reorder symbols, to
make sure that the addends are being associated with the minuend (and not
the subtrahend) relocation.
Fixes PR49999.

SUBTRACTOR relocations are always paired with UNSIGNED
relocations to indicate a pair of symbols whose address difference we
want. Functionally they are like a single relocation: only one pointer
gets written / relocated. Previously, we would handle these pairs by
skipping over the SUBTRACTOR relocation and writing the pointer when
handling the UNSIGNED reloc. This diff reverses things, so we write
while handling SUBTRACTORs and skip over the UNSIGNED relocs instead.
Being able to distinguish between SUBTRACTOR and UNSIGNED relocs in the
write phase (i.e. inside `relocateOne`) is useful for the upcoming range
check diff: we want to check that SUBTRACTOR relocs write signed values,
but UNSIGNED relocs (naturally) write unsigned values.

On arm64, UNSIGNED relocs are the only ones that use embedded addends
instead of the ADDEND relocation.
Also ensure that the addend works when UNSIGNED is part of a SUBTRACTOR
pair.

Also add a few asserts to verify that we are indeed handling an
UNSIGNED relocation as the minued. I haven't made it an actual
user-facing error since I don't think llvm-mc is capable of generating
SUBTRACTOR relocations without an associated UNSIGNED.

`llvm-mc` doesn't generate any relocations for subtractions
between local symbols -- they must be global -- so the previous test
wasn't actually testing any relocation logic. I've fixed that and
extended the test to cover r_length=3 relocations as well as both x86_64
and arm64.
