On Power10, it's profitable to schedule some stores with adjacent target
address together. This patch implements this feature.

This patch adds PC Relative support for global values that are known at link
time. If a global value requires access through the global offset table (GOT)
it is not covered in this patch.

There was another issue introduced by this commit that the OP
initially missed. Namely, for functions that are free to use
R2 as a callee-saved register, we emit a TOC expression based
on the address of the GEP label without emitting the GEP label.
Since we only emit such expressions for the large code model, this
issue only surfaced there.
I have confirmed that with this fix, the kernel build is successful
with target "all".
Add initial support for PC Relative addressing for constant pool loads.
This includes adding a new relocation for @pcrel and adding a new PowerPC flag
to identify PC relative addressing.

On PowerPC most functions require a valid TOC pointer.
This is the case because either the function itself needs to use this
pointer to access the TOC or because other functions that are called
from that function expect a valid TOC pointer in the register R2.
The main exception to this is leaf functions that do not access the TOC
since they are guaranteed not to need a valid TOC pointer.
This patch introduces a feature that will allow more functions to not
require a valid TOC pointer in R2.
