Bruno Cardoso Lopes d2335534c5 [AsmPrinter] Access pointers to globals via pcrel GOT entries
Front-ends could use global unnamed_addr to hold pointers to other
symbols, like @gotequivalent below:

@foo = global i32 42
@gotequivalent = private unnamed_addr constant i32* @foo

@delta = global i32 trunc (i64 sub (i64 ptrtoint (i32** @gotequivalent to i64),
                                    i64 ptrtoint (i32* @delta to i64))
                           to i32)

The global @delta holds a data "PC"-relative offset to @gotequivalent,
an unnamed pointer to @foo. The darwin/x86-64 assembly output for this follows:

 .globl  _foo
_foo:
 .long   42

 .globl  _gotequivalent
_gotequivalent:
 .quad   _foo

 .globl  _delta
_delta:
 .long   _gotequivalent-_delta

Since unnamed_addr indicates that the address is not significant, only
the content, we can optimize the case above by replacing pc-relative
accesses to "GOT equivalent" globals, by a PC relative access to the GOT
entry of the final symbol instead. Therefore, "delta" can contain a pc
relative relocation to foo's GOT entry and we avoid the emission of
"gotequivalent", yielding the assembly code below:

 .globl  _foo
_foo:
 .long   42

 .globl  _delta
_delta:
 .long   _foo@GOTPCREL+4

There are a couple of advantages of doing this: (1) Front-ends that need
to emit a great deal of data to store pointers to external symbols could
save space by not emitting such "got equivalent" globals and (2) IR
constructs combined with this opt opens a way to represent GOT pcrel
relocations by using the LLVM IR, which is something we previously had
no way to express.
