A more efficient PLT sequence can be used when the distance between the
.plt and the end of the .plt.got is less than 128 Megabytes, which is
frequently true. We fall back to the old sequence when the offset is larger
than 128 Megabytes. This gives us an alternative to forcing the longer
entries with --long-plt as we gracefully fall back to it as needed.
See ELF for the ARM Architecture Appendix A for details of the PLT sequence.

Its PR34712,
GNU linkers recently changed default values to "both" of "sysv".
Patch do the same for all targets except MIPS, where .gnu.hash
section is not yet supported.
Code suggested by Rui Ueyama.

This patch fills holes in executable sections with 0xd4 (ARM) or
0xef (MIPS). These trap instructions were suggested by Theo de Raadt.

Mapping symbols allow a mapping symbol aware disassembler to
correctly disassemble the PLT when the code immediately prior to the
PLT is Thumb.
To implement this we add a function to add symbols with local
binding to be defined in SyntheticSymbols.

This is in preparation for my next change, which will introduce a relro
nobits section. That requires that relro sections appear at the end of the
progbits part of the r/w segment so that the relro nobits section can appear
contiguously.
Because of the amount of churn required in the test suite, I'm making this
change separately.

Add support for the R_ARM_THM relocations used in the objects present
in arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc. These are:
R_ARM_THM_CALL
R_ARM_THM_JUMP11
R_ARM_THM_JUMP19
R_ARM_THM_JUMP24
R_ARM_THM_MOVT_ABS
R_ARM_THM_MOVW_ABS_NC
Interworking between ARM and Thumb is partially supported with BLX.
The R_ARM_CALL relocation for ARM instructions and R_ARM_THM_CALL
relocation for Thumb instructions will write out a BL or BLX depending
on the state of the Target.
Assumptions:
- Availability of BLX and extended range of Thumb 4-byte Branch
instructions.
- In relocateOne if (Val & 0x1) == 1 target is Thumb, 0 is ARM.
This will hold for objects that comply with the ABI for the
ARM architecture.
This is sufficient for hello world to work with a recent
arm-linux-gnueabihf distribution.
Limitations:
No interworking for R_ARM_JUMP24, R_ARM_THM_JUMP24, R_ARM_THM_JUMP19
and the deprecated R_ARM_PLT32 and R_ARM_PC24 instructions as these
cannot be written out as a BLX and need a state change thunk.
No range extension thunks. The R_ARM_JUMP24 and R_ARM_THM_CALL have a
range of 16Mb
