Peter Smith 28b172e341 [LLD][ELF][ARM] Implement ARM pc-relative relocations for ADR and LDR
The R_ARM_ALU_PC_G0 and R_ARM_LDR_PC_G0 relocations are used by the
ADR and LDR pseudo instructions, and are the basis of the group
relocations that can load an arbitrary constant via a series of add, sub
and ldr instructions.

The relocations need to be obtained via the .reloc directive.

R_ARM_ALU_PC_G0 is much more complicated as the add/sub instruction uses
a modified immediate encoding of an 8-bit immediate rotated right by an
even 4-bit field. This means that the range of representable immediates
is sparse. We extract the encoding and decoding functions for the modified
immediate from llvm/lib/Target/ARM/MCTargetDesc/ARMAddressingModes.h as
this header file is not accessible from LLD. Duplication of code isn't
ideal, but as these are well-defined mathematical functions they are
unlikely to change.
