There are number of changes in the way IFUNC related relocations are done:
1. IRELATIVE relocations are now supported for x86/x86_64 and arm64.
2. IFUNC relocations are now relying on static linker to generate
them in correct order - this removes necessety of additional
relocation pass for ifuncs.
3. Related to 2: rela?.dyn relocations are preformed before .plt ones.
4. Ifunc are resolved on symbol lookup this approach allowed to avoid
mprotect(PROT_WRITE) call on r-x program segments.
