We use its PLT entry to initialize function pointer at run-time. If
there is no other usage for the PLT entry, we can generate run-time
function pointer relocations in read-write section, which can be
resolved by dynamic linker, to initialize function pointers. It avoids
the extra indirect branch overhead in PLT.

Don't emit long branch or plt branch stubs to save/restore functions.
Copy them instead. The problem is that plt branch stubs currently
trash r12, one of the parameters to some of the save/restore
functions, and there is no free register available to use instead of
r12.

This patch done two types of cleanup:
* in aarch64_reloc_got_type and elfNN_aarch64_relocate_section
We don't need those redundant "case" check, as they can be merged
with the "default" which just "break".
* in elfNN_aarch64_gc_sweep_hook and elfNN_aarch64_check_relocs
All TLS local executable relocations and some local dynamic
relocations (those calculate module offset) actually don't need GOT
entry, so remove them from GOT entry counting.

To load an ELF binary with DT_TEXTREL tag, the dynamic linker calls
__mprotect on the read-only segment with PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE before
applying dynamic relocation. It leads to segfault when performing
IFUNC relocations since the read-only segment has no execute permission.
This patch changes x86 linker to issue an error for read-only segment
with dynamic IFUNC relocations. Other backends with IFUNC support
may need a similar change.
