Add r224985 back with fixes.

The fixes are to note that AArch64 has additional restrictions on when local
relocations can be used. In particular, ld64 requires that relocations to
cstring/cfstrings use linker visible symbols.

Original message:

In an assembly expression like

bar:
.long L0 + 1

the intended semantics is that bar will contain a pointer one byte past L0.

In sections that are merged by content (strings, 4 byte constants, etc), a
single position in the section doesn't give the linker enough information.
For example, it would not be able to tell a relocation must point to the
end of a string, since that would look just like the start of the next.

The solution used in ELF to use relocation with symbols if there is a non-zero
addend.

In MachO before this patch we would just keep all symbols in some sections.

This would miss some cases (only cstrings on x86_64 were implemented) and was
inefficient since most relocations have an addend of 0 and can be represented
without the symbol.

This patch implements the non-zero addend logic for MachO too.

Add r224985 back with two fixes.

One is that AArch64 has additional restrictions on when local relocations can
be used. We have to take those into consideration when deciding to put a L
symbol in the symbol table or not.

The other is that ld64 requires the relocations to cstring to use linker
visible symbols on AArch64.

Thanks to Michael Zolotukhin for testing this!

AArch64/ARM64: move ARM64 into AArch64's place

AArch64/ARM64: move ARM64 into AArch64's place

This commit starts with a "git mv ARM64 AArch64" and continues out
from there, renaming the C++ classes, intrinsics, and other
target-local objects for consistency.

"ARM64" test directories are also moved, and tests that began their
life in ARM64 use an arm64 triple, those from AArch64 use an aarch64
triple. Both should be equivalent though.

This finishes the AArch64 merge, and everyone should feel free to
continue committing as normal now.
