[LLD][ELF][AArch64] Add AArch64 short range thunk support The AArch64 branch immediate instruction has a 128MiB range. This makes it suitable for use a short range thunk in the same way as short thunks are implemented in Arm and PPC. This patch adds support for short range thunks to AArch64. Adding short range thunk support should mean that OutputSections can grow to nearly 256 MiB in size without needing long-range indirect branches.

Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.
Join the LLVM Discourse forums, Discord chat, or #llvm IRC channel on OFTC.
The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
