As defined at AArch64 ELF Specification (4.6.7 Call and Jump
relocations), symbol with type of non STT_FUNC but in different input
section with relocation place should insert long branch veneer also.
Meanwhile the current long branch veneer infrastructure havn't considered
the situation where the branch destination is "sym_value + rela->addend".
This was OK because we only insert veneer for long call destination is
STT_FUNC symbol for which the addend is always zero. But as we relax the
support to other situations by this patch, we need to handle addend be
non-zero value. For example, for static function, relocation against
"local symbol" are turned into relocation against "section symbol + offset"
where there is a valid addend.

We have a problem in that in making compatibility checks while merging
private BFD data on the MIPS target we give priority to the attribute
check, which may fail and cause the function to abort early on. The
problem with this is the ABI compatibility aspect recorded in the
attributes is relatively minor compared to aspects recorded in the ELF
file header. However the premature exit causes any more important
compatibility aspect violated to be masked and not reported to the user
once a problem with attributes has been noticed.
So move the attribute check after the ELF file header flag check in
`_bfd_mips_elf_merge_private_bfd_data', and do not return prematurely
there. Take advantage of the resulting grouping of ELF file header
handling together and remove the premature success return point for the
first input object being handled, letting the code later on figure out
output ABI flags even for this object.
Update LD test cases according to messages from ELF file header checks
now preceding ones from attribute checks.
