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.

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 change introduces new synthetic sections IpltSection, IgotPltSection
that represent the ifunc entries that would previously have been put in
the PltSection and the GotPltSection. The separation makes sure that
the R_*_IRELATIVE relocations are placed after the non R_*_IRELATIVE
relocations, which permits ifunc resolvers to know that the .got.plt
slots will be initialized prior to the resolver being called.
A secondary benefit is that for ARM we can move the IgotPltSection and its
dynamic relocations to the .got and .rel.dyn as the ARM glibc expects all
the R_*_IRELATIVE relocations to be in the .rel.dyn

Add support for an ARM Target and the initial set of relocations
and PLT entries that are necessary for an ARM only hello world to
link. This has been tested against an ARM only sysroot from the
4.2.0 CodeSourcery Lite release.
Tests have been added to test/ELF for the support that has been
implemented.
Main limitations:
- No Thumb support
- Relocations incomplete
- No C++ exceptions support
- No TLS support
- No range extension or interworking veneer (thunk) support
- No Build Attribute support
- No Big-endian support
The deprecated relocations R_ARM_PLT32 and R_ARM_PC24 have been
implemented as these are used by the 4.2.0 CodeSourcery Lite release.
