[ELF][MIPS] Fix handling of _gp/_gp_disp/__gnu_local_gp symbols

Offset between beginning of a .got section and _gp symbols used in MIPS
GOT relocations calculations. Usually the expression looks like
VA + Offset - GP, where VA is the .got section address, Offset - offset
of the GOT entry, GP - offset between .got and _gp. Also there two "magic"
symbols _gp_disp and __gnu_local_gp which hold the offset mentioned above.
These symbols might be referenced by MIPS relocations.

Now the linker always defines _gp symbol and uses hardcoded value for
its initialization. So offset between .got and _gp is 0x7ff0. The _gp_disp
and __gnu_local_gp defined if required and initialized by 0x7ff0.
In fact that is not correct because _gp symbol might be defined by a linker
script and holds arbitrary value. In that case we need to use this value
in relocation calculation and initialize _gp_disp and __gnu_local_gp
properly.

The patch fixes the problem and completes fixing the bug #30311.
