Support fusion for ELFv2 stubs

Power8 fuses addis,addi and addis,ld sequences when the target of the
addis is the same as the addi/ld.  Thus
    addis r12,r2,xxx@ha
    addi r12,r12,xxx@l / ld r12,xxx@l(r12)
is faster than
    addis r11,r2,xxx@ha
    addi r12,r11,xxx@l / ld r12,xxx@l(r11)
So use the form that allows fusion in plt call and branch stubs.
