isharipo 328adf9d62 cmd/link: fewer allocs in ld.Arch.Archreloc
Archreloc had this signature:

	func(*Link, *sym.Reloc, *sym.Symbol, *int64) bool

The last *int64 argument is used as out parameter.
Passed valus could be allocated on stack, but escape analysis
fails here, leading to high number of unwanted allocs.

If instead 4th arg is passed by value, and modified values is returned,
no problems with allocations arise:

	func(*Link, *sym.Reloc, *sym.Symbol, int64) (int64, bool)

There are 2 benefits:
1. code becomes more readable.
2. less allocations.

For linking "hello world" example from net/http:

	name      old time/op  new time/op  delta
	Linker-4   530ms ± 2%   520ms ± 2%  -1.83%  (p=0.001 n=17+16)

It's top 1 in alloc_objects from memprofile:

	flat   flat%  sum%       cum    cum%
	229379 33.05% 33.05%     229379 33.05%  cmd/link/internal/ld.relocsym
	...

list relocsym:

	229379     229379 (flat, cum) 33.05% of Total
	229379     229379    183:    var o int64

After the patch, ~230k of int64 allocs (~ 1.75mb) removed.

Passes toolshash-check (toolstash cmp).
