Verify that the ISA mode of branch targets is the same as the referring
relocation, so that an attempt to produce a branch between instructions
encoded in different ISA modes each causes an error rather than silently
producing non-functional code. Make sure that no symbol or addend bits
are silently truncated: terminate with an error if the relocation value
calculated cannot be encoded in the relocatable field of a branch; for
REL targets also applying to any intermediate addend.
Also make jump target's alignment verification consistent with that for
branches.
This change will require an update to some obscure handcoded assembly
sources which make branches to labels placed at data objects, however
for microMIPS code only. These labels will have to be updated with the
`.insn' directive for containing code to assemble and link successfully.
Such code is broken as any such labels have always been required by the
microMIPS architecture specification[1][2] to be annotated this way for
correct interpretation, and with our old code missing `.insn' directives
caused labels to present different semantics depending on whether they
were referred with branch (ISA bit ignored) or other relocations (ISA
bit respected).
Enforcing these checks however will ensure errors in building software,
like mixed regular MIPS and microMIPS code links with branches between,
will be diagnosed at the build time rather than causing odd run-time
errors such as intermittent crashes. It will also let cross-mode BAL
instructions be converted to JALX instructions, with a separate change.

Fix a generic BFD issue with relocations against absolute symbols, which
are installed without using any individual relocation handler provided
by the backend. This causes any absolute section's addend to be lost on
REL targets such as o32 MIPS, and also relocation-specific calculation
adjustments are not made.
As an example assembling this program:
$ cat test.s
.text
foo:
b bar
b baz
.set bar, 0x1234
$ as -EB -32 -o test-o32.o test.s
$ as -EB -n32 -o test-n32.o test.s
produces this binary code:
$ objdump -dr test-o32.o test-n32.o
test-o32.o: file format elf32-tradbigmips
Disassembly of section .text:
00000000 <foo>:
0: 10000000 b 4 <foo+0x4>
0: R_MIPS_PC16 *ABS*
4: 00000000 nop
8: 1000ffff b 8 <foo+0x8>
8: R_MIPS_PC16 baz
c: 00000000 nop
test-n32.o: file format elf32-ntradbigmips
Disassembly of section .text:
00000000 <foo>:
0: 10000000 b 4 <foo+0x4>
0: R_MIPS_PC16 *ABS*+0x1230
4: 00000000 nop
8: 10000000 b c <foo+0xc>
8: R_MIPS_PC16 baz-0x4
c: 00000000 nop
$
where it is clearly visible in `test-o32.o', which uses REL relocations,
that the absolute section's addend equivalent to the value of `bar' -- a
reference to which cannot be fully resolved at the assembly time,
because the reference is PC-relative -- has been lost, as has been the
relocation-specific adjustment of -4, required to take into account the
PC+4-relative calculation made by hardware with branches and seen in the
external symbol reference to `baz' as the `ffff' addend encoded in the
instruction word. In `test-n32.o', which uses RELA relocations, the
absolute section's addend has been correctly retained.
Give precedence then in `bfd_perform_relocation' and
`bfd_install_relocation' to any individual relocation handler the
backend selected may have provided, while still resorting to the generic
calculation otherwise. This retains the semantics which we've had since
forever or before the beginning of our repository history, and is at the
very least compatible with `bfd_elf_generic_reloc' being used as the
handler.
Retain the `bfd_is_und_section' check unchanged at the beginning of
`bfd_perform_relocation' since this does not affect the semantics of the
function. The check returns the same `bfd_reloc_undefined' code the
check for a null `howto' does, so swapping the two does not matter.
Also the check is is mutually exclusive with the `bfd_is_abs_section'
check, since a section cannot be absolute and undefined both at once, so
swapping the two does not matter either.
With this change applied the program quoted above now has the in-place
addend correctly calculated and installed in the field being relocated:
$ objdump -dr fixed-o32.o
fixed-o32.o: file format elf32-tradbigmips
Disassembly of section .text:
00000000 <foo>:
0: 1000048c b 1234 <bar>
0: R_MIPS_PC16 *ABS*
4: 00000000 nop
8: 1000ffff b 8 <foo+0x8>
8: R_MIPS_PC16 baz
c: 00000000 nop
$
Add a set of MIPS tests to cover the relevant cases, including absolute
symbols with addends, and verifying that PC-relative relocations against
symbols concerned resolve to the same value in the final link regardless
of whether the REL or the RELA relocation form is used. Exclude linker
tests though which would overflow the in-place addend on REL targets and
use them as dump patterns for RELA targets only.
