Peter Smith 3c73a41128 [ELF] Optimize Arm PLT sequences
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.

Peter Smith 2809926c4d [ELF][ARM] Refine check for when undefined weak needs a Thunk
When an undefined weak reference has a PLT entry we must generate a range
extension thunk for any B or BL that can't reach the PLT entry.

This change explicitly looks for whether a PLT entry exists rather than
assuming that weak references never need PLT entries unless Config->Shared
is in operation. This covers the case where we are linking an executable
with dynamic linking, hence a PLT entry will be needed for undefined weak
references. This case comes up in real programs over 32 Mb in size as there
is a B to a weak reference __gmon__start__ in the Arm crti.o for glibc.
