arm64/module: use plt section indices for relocations

Instead of saving a pointer to the .plt and .init.plt sections to apply
plt-based relocations, save and use their section indices instead.

The mod->arch.{core,init}.plt pointers were problematic for livepatch
because they pointed within temporary section headers (provided by the
module loader via info->sechdrs) that would be freed after module load.
Since livepatch modules may need to apply relocations post-module-load
(for example, to patch a module that is loaded later), using section
indices to offset into the section headers (instead of accessing them
through a saved pointer) allows livepatch modules on arm64 to pass in
their own copy of the section headers to apply_relocate_add() to apply
delayed relocations.
