powerpc/boot: Stop using RELACOUNT
So far the RELACOUNT tag from the ELF header was containing the exact number of R_PPC_RELATIVE/R_PPC64_RELATIVE relocations. However the LLVM's recent change [1] make it equal-or-less than the actual number which makes it useless. This replaces RELACOUNT in zImage loader with a pair of RELASZ and RELAENT. The vmlinux relocation code is fixed in commit d7997691 ("powerpc/64: Add UADDR64 relocation support"). To make it more future proof, this walks through the entire .rela.dyn section instead of assuming that the section is sorter by a relocation type. Unlike d7997691, this does not add unaligned UADDR/UADDR64 relocations as we are likely not to see those in practice - the zImage is small and very arch specific so there is a smaller chance that some generic feature (such as PRINK_INDEX) triggers unaligned relocations.
