[lld-macho] Initial support for Linker Optimization Hints
Linker optimization hints mark a sequence of instructions used for synthesizing an address, like ADRP+ADD. If the referenced symbol ends up close enough, it can be replaced by a faster sequence of instructions like ADR+NOP. This commit adds support for 2 of the 7 defined ARM64 optimization hints: - LOH_ARM64_ADRP_ADD, which transforms a pair of ADRP+ADD into ADR+NOP if the referenced address is within +/- 1 MiB - LOH_ARM64_ADRP_ADRP, which transforms two ADRP instructions into ADR+NOP if they reference the same page These two kinds already cover more than 50% of all LOHs in chromium_framework.
