A working GRUB cannot be built with upcoming binutils and GCC, because linker
relaxation was added [1] causing new unsupported relocations to appear in modules.
So we pass -mno-relax to GCC if it is supported, to disable relaxation and make
GRUB forward-compatible with new toolchains.
While similar code already exists for sparc64 in configure.ac, sparc64 sets
LDFLAGS while LoongArch requires CFLAGS to be set. If we only set LDFLAGS on
LoongArch, GCC will still generate relaxation relocations in the .o files, so
the sparc64 code cannot be reused.

According to the relocation documentation, the following function names are
renamed to show their exact meaning:
- from grub_loongarch64_xxx64_hi12() to grub_loongarch64_abs64_hi12(),
- from grub_loongarch64_xxx64_hi12() to grub_loongarch64_abs64_lo20().

I ran the test suite on a 3A5000 desktop, a LoongArch architecture machine,
using Archlinux for LoongArch distro, see https://github.com/loongarchlinux.

TEST FAILURE
FAIL grub_func_test (exit status: 1)
We got 2 errors:
* f2fs_test
The kernel uses 16k pages, causing failures when loading the f2fs kernel module,
see https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/fs/f2fs/super.c#L4670
This error can be ignored.
* zfs_test
zfs does not support the LoongArch architecture and is not compatible with the
6.3 kernel.
This error can be ignored.
We got 2 failures:
* hfs_test
I use recode 3.7.14-1 on Archlinux, running `recode -l` gives no output `MacRoman`,
so we get this error.
On Linux systems that support LoongArch, there is currently no need to use HFS,
so this failure can be ignored.
* grub_func_test
I don't know the reason for this failure. I guess it may be related to qemu's edk2.
In the previous review, I was told that the failure here is the expected behavior.
So, we can ignore this failure.

This patch adds support of the stack-based LoongArch relocations
throughout GRUB, including tools, dynamic linkage, and support for
conversion of ELF relocations into PE ones. A stack machine is required
to handle these per the spec [1] (see the R_LARCH_SOP types), of which
a simple implementation is included.
These relocations are produced by binutils 2.38 and 2.39, while the newer
v2.00 relocs require more recent toolchain (binutils 2.40+ & gcc 13+, or
LLVM 16+). GCC 13 has not been officially released as of early 2023, so
support for v1.00 relocs are expected to stay relevant for a while.
