During upgrading of the FreeBSD source tree with lld 7.0.0, I noticed
that it started complaining about `crt1.o` having an "index past the
end of the symbol table".

Such a symbol table looks approximately like this, viewed with `readelf
-s` (note the `Ndx` field being messed up):

  Symbol table '.symtab' contains 4 entries:
     Num:    Value  Size Type    Bind   Vis      Ndx Name
       0: 00000000     0 NOTYPE  LOCAL  DEFAULT  UND
       1: 00000000     0 SECTION LOCAL  DEFAULT    1
       2: 00000000     0 NOTYPE  WEAK   HIDDEN  RSV[0xffff] __rel_iplt_end
       3: 00000000     0 NOTYPE  WEAK   HIDDEN  RSV[0xffff] __rel_iplt_start

At first, it seemed that recent ifunc relocation work had caused this:
https://reviews.freebsd.org/rS339351, but it turned out that it was
due to incorrect processing of the object files by lld, when using `-r`
(a.k.a. --relocatable).

Bisecting showed that https://reviews.llvm.org/rL324421 ("Convert a use of Config->Static") was
the commit where this new behavior began.  Simply reverting it solved
the issue, and the `__rel_iplt` symbols had an index of `UND` again.

Looking at Rafael's commit message, I think he simply missed the
possibility of `--relocatable` being in effect, so I have added an
additional check for it.

I also added a simple regression test case.
