The linker relies on relocation type info (e.g. is it a branch?) to perform the
correct actions, so we should keep that even when we end up using a scattered
relocation for whatever reason.

This patch centralizes the handling of the thumb bit around
MCStreamer::isThumbFunc and makes isThumbFunc handle aliases.
This fixes a corner case, but the main advantage is having just one
way to check if a MCSymbol is thumb or not. This should still be
refactored to be ARM only, but at least now it is just one predicate
that has to be refactored instead of 3 (isThumbFunc,
ELF_Other_ThumbFunc, and SF_ThumbFunc).

I discovered this const-hole while attempting to coalesnce the Symbol
and SymbolMap data structures. There's some pending issues with that,
but I figured this change was easy to flush early.

I started trying to fix a small issue, but this code has seen a small fix too
many.
The old code was fairly convoluted. Some of the issues it had:
* It failed to check if a symbol difference was in the some section when
converting a relocation to pcrel.
* It failed to check if the relocation was already pcrel.
* The pcrel value computation was wrong in some cases (relocation-pc.s)
* It was missing quiet a few cases where it should not convert symbol
relocations to section relocations, leaving the backends to patch it up.
* It would not propagate the fact that it had changed a relocation to pcrel,
requiring a quiet nasty work around in ARM.
* It was missing comments.

were falling into the cases for 24-bit branch kinds which are not 24-bit
branches. The routine is to return false for fixups are expected to always
be resolvable at assembly time. Which these three fixups are as they have
limited displacement and are for local references within a function.

Sooooo many of these had incorrect or strange main module includes.
I have manually inspected all of these, and fixed the main module
include to be the nearest plausible thing I could find. If you own or
care about any of these source files, I encourage you to take some time
and check that these edits were sensible. I can't have broken anything
(I strictly added headers, and reordered them, never removed), but they
may not be the headers you'd really like to identify as containing the
API being implemented.
Many forward declarations and missing includes were added to a header
files to allow them to parse cleanly when included first. The main
module rule does in fact have its merits. =]

When a BL/BLX references a symbol in the same translation unit that is
out of range, use an external relocation. The linker will use this to
generate a branch island rather than a direct reference, allowing the
relocation to resolve correctly.

where the other_half of the movt and movw relocation entries needs to get set
and only with the 16 bits of the other half.

We on the linker to resolve calls to the appropriate BL/BLX instruction
to make interworking function correctly. It uses the symbol in the
relocation to do that, so we need to be careful about being too clever.
To enable this for ARM mode, split the BL/BLX fixup kind off from the
unconditional-branch fixups.

Adjust an example MachObjectWriter diagnostic to use the information
to issue a better message.

When the file isn't being built with subsections-via-symbols, symbol
differences involving non-local symbols can be resolved more aggressively.
Needed for gas compatibility.
