  -----------
  [LLD] [COFF] Warn about pseudo relocations that are too narrow

In 64 bit mode, any references to symbols that might end up autoimported
must be made via full 64 bit pointers (usually in .refptr stubs
generated by the compiler).

If referenced via e.g. a 32 bit rip relative offset, it might work
as long as DLLs are loaded close together in the 64 bit address
space, but will fail surprisingly later if they happen to be loaded
further apart. Any cases of that happening is usually a toolchain
error, and the sooner we can warn about it, the easier it is to diagnose.
