[X86][LLD] Handle R_X86_64_CODE_6_GOTTPOFF relocation type (#117675)
For
add %reg1, name@GOTTPOFF(%rip), %reg2
add name@GOTTPOFF(%rip), %reg1, %reg2
{nf} add %reg1, name@GOTTPOFF(%rip), %reg2
{nf} add name@GOTTPOFF(%rip), %reg1, %reg2

add
R_X86_64_CODE_6_GOTTPOFF = 50
in #117277.
Linker can treat R_X86_64_CODE_6_GOTTPOFF as R_X86_64_GOTTPOFF or
convert the instructions above to
add $name@tpoff, %reg1, %reg2
add $name@tpoff, %reg1, %reg2
{nf} add $name@tpoff, %reg1, %reg2
{nf} add $name@tpoff, %reg1, %reg2
{nf} add $name@tpoff, %reg
if the first byte of the instruction at the relocation offset - 6 is
0x62 (namely, encoded w/EVEX prefix) when possible.

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, LLVM Office Hours or Regular sync-ups.
The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
