The idea is to produce R_X86_64_PLT32 instead of
R_X86_64_PC32 for branches.
It fixes https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44397.
This patch teaches MC to do that for JCC (jump if condition is met)
instructions. The new behavior matches modern GNU as.
It is similar to D43383, which did the same for "call/jmp foo",
but missed JCC cases.

-t is --symbols in llvm-readobj but --section-details (unimplemented) in readelf.
The confusing option should not be used since we aim for improving
compatibility.
Keep just one llvm-readobj -t use case in test/tools/llvm-readobj/symbols.test

We use both -long-option and --long-option in tests. Switch to --long-option for consistency.
In the "llvm-readelf" mode, -long-option is discouraged as it conflicts with grouped short options and it is not accepted by GNU readelf.
While updating the tests, change llvm-readobj -s to llvm-readobj -S to reduce confusion ("s" is --section-headers in llvm-readobj but --symbols in llvm-readelf).

For instructions like call foo and jmp foo patch changes
relocation produced from R_X86_64_PC32 to R_X86_64_PLT32.
Relocation can be used as a marker for 32-bit PC-relative branches.
Linker will reduce PLT32 relocation to PC32 if function is defined locally.

As part of the unification of the debug format and the MIR format, print
MBB references as '%bb.5'.
The MIR printer prints the IR name of a MBB only for block definitions.

Section symbols exist as an optimization: instead of having multiple relocations
point to different symbols, many of them can point to a single section symbol.
When that optimization is unused, a section symbol is also unused and adds no
extra information to the object file.
This saves a bit of space on the object files and makes the output of
llvm-objdump -t easier to read and consequently some tests get quite a bit
simpler.

Many of these predate llvm-readobj. With elf-dump we had to match
a relocation to symbol number and symbol number to symbol name or
section number.

For COFF and MachO, sections semantically have relocations that apply to them.
That is not the case on ELF.
In relocatable objects (.o), a section with relocations in ELF has offsets to
another section where the relocations should be applied.
In dynamic objects and executables, relocations don't have an offset, they have
a virtual address. The section sh_info may or may not point to another section,
but that is not actually used for resolving the relocations.
This patch exposes that in the ObjectFile API. It has the following advantages:
* Most (all?) clients can handle this more efficiently. They will normally walk
all relocations, so doing an effort to iterate in a particular order doesn't
save time.
* llvm-readobj now prints relocations in the same way the native readelf does.
* probably most important, relocations that don't point to any section are now
visible. This is the case of relocations in the rela.dyn section. See the
updated relocation-executable.test for example.
