Thanks for test. I was not aware about such problem.
I think it should be possible to use yaml2obj to simplify it (up to you, just want to share the idea).

For example lld\test\ELF\relocation-none-aarch64.testis something very close to what I am thinking about,
it has single relocation and you probably should be able to replace it with R_AARCH64_JUMP26 and R_AARCH64_CALL26 relocations 
to check which bytes LLD emits for them (and check that bytes are different after this patch).
