Summary: When compiling with -fpic, in contrast to -fPIC, use only the
immediate field to index into the GOT. This saves space if the GOT is
known to be small. The linker will warn if the GOT is too large for
this method.

MC only needs to know if the output is PIC or not. It never has to
decide about creating GOTs and PLTs for example. The only thing that
MC itself uses this information for is expanding "macros" in sparc and
mips. The rest I am pretty sure could be moved to CodeGen.
This is a cleanup and isolates the code from future changes to
Reloc::Model.

This causes errors like:
ld: error: blah.o: requires dynamic R_X86_64_PC32 reloc against '' which
may overflow at runtime; recompile with -fPIC
blah.cc:function f(): error: undefined reference to ''
blah.o:g(): error: undefined reference to ''
I have not yet come up with an appropriate reproduction.

Now that pr23900 is fixed, we can bring it back with no changes.
Original message:
Make all temporary symbols unnamed.
What this does is make all symbols that would otherwise start with a .L
(or L on MachO) unnamed.
Some of these symbols still show up in the symbol table, but we can just
make them unnamed.
In order to make sure we produce identical results when going thought assembly,
all .L (not just the compiler produced ones), are now unnamed.
Running llc on llvm-as.opt.bc, the peak memory usage goes from 208.24MB to
205.57MB.

They had been getting emitted as a section + offset reference, which
is bogus since the value needs to be the offset within the GOT, not
the actual address of the symbol's object.
