Add initial support for Thumb for ARMv7a
Add support for the R_ARM_THM relocations used in the objects present in arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc. These are: R_ARM_THM_CALL R_ARM_THM_JUMP11 R_ARM_THM_JUMP19 R_ARM_THM_JUMP24 R_ARM_THM_MOVT_ABS R_ARM_THM_MOVW_ABS_NC Interworking between ARM and Thumb is partially supported with BLX. The R_ARM_CALL relocation for ARM instructions and R_ARM_THM_CALL relocation for Thumb instructions will write out a BL or BLX depending on the state of the Target. Assumptions: - Availability of BLX and extended range of Thumb 4-byte Branch instructions. - In relocateOne if (Val & 0x1) == 1 target is Thumb, 0 is ARM. This will hold for objects that comply with the ABI for the ARM architecture. This is sufficient for hello world to work with a recent arm-linux-gnueabihf distribution. Limitations: No interworking for R_ARM_JUMP24, R_ARM_THM_JUMP24, R_ARM_THM_JUMP19 and the deprecated R_ARM_PLT32 and R_ARM_PC24 instructions as these cannot be written out as a BLX and need a state change thunk. No range extension thunks. The R_ARM_JUMP24 and R_ARM_THM_CALL have a range of 16Mb llvm-svn: 272881
