We only need to exceed 128 Megabytes to provoke the generation of a range
extension thunk. This brings the file size down to just over 128 Megabytes.

This patch provides the mechanism to fix instances of the instruction
sequence that may trigger the cortex-a53 843419 erratum. The fix is
provided by an alternative instruction sequence to remove one of the
erratum conditions. To reach this alternative instruction sequence we
replace the original instruction with a branch to the alternative
sequence. The alternative sequence is responsible for branching back to
the original.
As there is only erratum to fix the implementation is specific to
AArch64 and the specific erratum conditions. It should be generalizable
to other targets and erratum if needed.

Add a new file AArch64ErrataFix.cpp that implements the logic to scan for
the Cortex-A53 Erratum 843419. This involves finding all the executable
code, disassembling the instructions that might trigger the erratum and
reporting a message if the sequence is detected.
At this stage we do not attempt to fix the erratum, this functionality
will be added in a later patch. See D36749 for proposal.
