Port the D64906 technique to ARM. It deletes 3 alignments at
PT_LOAD boundaries for the default case: the size of an arm binary
decreases by at most 12kb.

The .ARM.exidx table has an entry for each function with the first entry
giving the start address of the function, the table is sorted in ascending
order of function address. Given a PC value, the unwinder will search the
table for the entry that contains the PC value.
If the table entry happens to be the last, the range of the addresses that
the final unwinding table describes will extend to the end of the address
space. To prevent an incorrect address outside the address range of the
program matching the last entry we follow ld.bfd's example and add a
sentinel EXIDX_CANTUNWIND entry at the end of the table. This gives the
final real table entry an upper bound.
In addition the llvm libunwind unwinder currently depends on the presence
of a sentinel entry (PR31091).

The R_ARM_TARGET2 relocation is used in ARM exception tables to encode
a data dependency that will only be dereferenced by code in the
run-time support library. In a similar way to R_ARM_TARGET1 the
handling of the relocation is target specific, it maps to one of
R_ARM_ABS32, R_ARM_REL32 or R_ARM_GOT_PREL. The choice depends on the
run-time library. R_ARM_GOT_PREL is used for linux and BSD,
R_ARM_ABS32 and R_ARM_REL32 are used for bare-metal.
The command line option --target2=<target> can be used to select the
relocation used for R_ARM_TARGET2. The default is R_ARM_GOT_PREL.
