[ELF][ARM] Add support for architecture v6m thunks ARM Architecture v6m is used by the smallest microcontrollers such as the cortex-m0. It is Thumb only (no Thumb 2) which prevents it from using the existing Thumb 2 range extension thunks as these use the Thumb 2 movt/movw instructions. Range extension thunks are not usually needed for microcontrollers due to the small amount of flash and ram on the device, however if code is copied from flash into ram then a range extension thunk is required to call that code. This change adds support for v6m range extension thunks. The procedure call standard APCS permits a thunk to corrupt the intra-procedural scratch register r12 (referred to as ip in the APCS). Most Thumb instructions do not permit access to high registers (r8 - r15) so the thunks must spill some low registers (r0 - r7) to perform the control transfer.
