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.

Benchmarking

In order to make sure various developers can evaluate patches over the same tests, we create a collection of self contained programs.
