Fix PR20789 - relaxation with negative valued diff relocs
Fix issues with diff relocs that have a negative value
i.e. sym2 - sym1 where sym2 is lesser than sym1.
The assembler generates a diff reloc with symbol as start of section
and addend as sym2 offset, and encodes assembly time difference at
the reloc offset.
The existing relaxation logic adjusts addends if the relaxed insn lies
between symbol and addend. That doesn't work for diff relocs where
sym2 is less than sym1 *and* the relaxed insn happens to be between
sym2 and sym1.
Fix the problems by
1. Using signed handling of the difference value (bfd_signed_vma instead
of bfd_vma, bfd_{get,set}_signed_xxx instead of bfd_{get,set}_xxx).
2. Not assuming sym2 is bigger than sym1. It instead computes the actual
addresses and sets the lower and higher addresses as start and end
addresses respectively and then sees if insn is between start and end.
3. Creating a new function elf32_avr_adjust_reloc_if_spans_insn to
centralize reloc adjustment, and ensuring diff relocs get adjusted
correctly even if their sym + addend doesn't overlap a relaxed insn.
It also removes a redundant variable did_pad. It is never set if
did_shrink is TRUE, and the code does a early return if did_shrink is
FALSE.
