  [lld-macho] Add LOH_ARM64_ADRP_LDR_GOT_LDR optimization hint support

This hint instructs the linker to relax a GOT-indirect load.
If the referenced symbol is external and its GOT entry is within +/- 1
MiB, the GOT entry can be loaded with a single literal ldr instruction.
If the referenced symbol is local, its address may be loaded directly if
it's close enough, or with an adr(p) + ldr pair if it's not.

This type accounts for more than half of all LOHs in chromium_framework.

This commit moves the eligibility checks into helper functions to
improve the readability of the LOH processing code. Ho functional
changes are intended to the previously implemented LOH types.
