[X86] -fno-plt: use GOT __tls_get_addr only if GOTPCRELX is enabled

Summary:
As of binutils 2.32, ld has a bogus TLS relaxation error when the GD/LD
code sequence using R_X86_64_GOTPCREL (instead of R_X86_64_GOTPCRELX) is
attempted to be relaxed to IE/LE (binutils PR24784). gold and lld are good.

In gcc/config/i386/i386.md, there is a configure-time check of as/ld
support and the GOT relaxation will not be used if as/ld doesn't support
it:

    if (flag_plt || !HAVE_AS_IX86_TLS_GET_ADDR_GOT)
      return "call\t%P2";
    return "call\t{*%p2@GOT(%1)|[DWORD PTR %p2@GOT[%1]]}";

In clang, -DENABLE_X86_RELAX_RELOCATIONS=OFF is the default. The ld.bfd
bogus error can be reproduced with:

    thread_local int a;
    int main() { return a; }

clang -fno-plt -fpic a.cc -fuse-ld=bfd

GOTPCRELX gained relative good support in 2016, which is considered
relatively new.  It is even difficult to conditionally default to
-DENABLE_X86_RELAX_RELOCATIONS=ON due to cross compilation reasons. So
work around the ld.bfd bug by only using GOT when GOTPCRELX is enabled.
