[ELF] MIPS paired R_MIPS_HI16/LO16 relocations support
Some MIPS relocations including `R_MIPS_HI16/R_MIPS_LO16` use combined addends. Such addend is calculated using addends of both paired relocations. Each `R_MIPS_HI16` relocation is paired with the next `R_MIPS_LO16` relocation. ABI requires to compute such combined addend in case of REL relocation record format only. For details see p. 4-17 at ftp://www.linux-mips.org/pub/linux/mips/doc/ABI/mipsabi.pdf This patch implements lookup of the next paired relocation suing new `InputSectionBase::findPairedRelocLocation` method. The primary disadvantage of this approach is that we put MIPS specific logic into the common code. The next disadvantage is that we lookup `R_MIPS_LO16` for each `R_MIPS_HI16` relocation, while in fact multiple `R_MIPS_HI16` might be paired with the single `R_MIPS_LO16`. From the other side this way allows us to keep `MipsTargetInfo` class stateless and implement later relocation handling in parallel. This patch does not support `R_MIPS_HI16/R_MIPS_LO16` relocations against `_gp_disp` symbol. In that case the relocations use a special formula for the calculation. That will be implemented later.
