Currently, the medium code model for x86_64 emits position-dependent relocations (R_X86_64_64) for local functions, regardless of PIC or no-PIC mode. (This means generically that code compiled with the medium model cannot be linked into a position-independent executable.)
Example:
```
static int g(int n) {
return 2 * n + 3;
}
void f(int(**p)(int)) {
*p = g;
}
```
This results in:
```
Disassembly of section .text:
0000000000000000 <f>:
0: 48 b8 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 movabs rax, 0x0
a: 48 89 07 mov qword ptr [rdi], rax
d: c3 ret
```
```
Relocation section '.rela.text' at offset 0xf0 contains 1 entries:
Offset Info Type Symbol's Value Symbol's Name + Addend
0000000000000002 0000000200000001 R_X86_64_64 0000000000000000 .text + 10
```
This patch changes the behaviour to unconditionally emit a RIP-relative access, both in PIC and non-PIC mode. This fixes PIC mode, and is perhaps an improvement in non-PIC mode, too, since it results in a shorter instruction. A 32-bit relocation should suffice since the medium memory model demands that all code fit within 2GiB.

Test updates were performed using:
https://gist.github.com/nikic/98357b71fd67756b0f064c9517b62a34
These are only the test updates where the test passed without
further modification (which is almost all of them, as the backend
is largely pointer-type agnostic).
The motivation is that the update script has at least two deviations
(`<...>@GOT`/`<...>@PLT`/ and not hiding pointer arithmetics) from
what pretty much all the checklines were generated with,
and most of the tests are still not updated, so each time one of the
non-up-to-date tests is updated to see the effect of the code change,
there is a lot of noise. Instead of having to deal with that each
time, let's just deal with everything at once.
This has been done via:
```
cd llvm-project/llvm/test/CodeGen/X86
grep -rl "; NOTE: Assertions have been autogenerated by utils/update_llc_test_checks.py" | xargs -L1 <...>/llvm-project/llvm/utils/update_llc_test_checks.py --llc-binary <...>/llvm-project/build/bin/llc
```
Not all tests were regenerated, however.
While working on D97208 I noticed that these greedy regular
expressions prevent tests from failing when (%rip) appears after
a constant pool label when it didn't before.

clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenModule sets dso_local on applicable function declarations,
we don't need to duplicate the work in TargetMachine:shouldAssumeDSOLocal.
(Actually the long-term goal (started by r324535) is to drop TargetMachine::shouldAssumeDSOLocal.)
By not implying dso_local, we will respect dso_local/dso_preemptable specifiers
set by the frontend. This allows the proposed -fno-direct-access-external-data
option to work with -fno-pic and prevent a canonical PLT entry (SHN_UNDEF with non-zero st_value)
when taking the address of a function symbol.
This patch should be NFC in terms of the Clang emitted assembly because the case
we don't set dso_local is a case Clang sets dso_local. However, some tests don't
set dso_local on some function declarations and expose some differences. Most
tests have been fixed to be more robust in the previous commit.

LowerConstantPool passes a nullptr into classifyLocalReference. The medium code model handling for PIC will try to deference it using isa. This patch switches to isa_and_nonnull.

-fno-PIC and -fPIE code generally cannot be linked in -shared mode and there is no benefit accessing via local aliases.
Actually, a .Lfoo$local reference will be converted to a STT_SECTION (if no section relaxation) reference which will cause the section symbol (sizeof(Elf64_Sym)=24) to be generated.
For a MC_GlobalAddress reference to a dso_local external GlobalValue with a definition, emit .Lfoo$local to avoid a relocation.
-fno-pic and -fpie can infer dso_local but -fpic cannot. In the future,
we can explore the possibility of inferring dso_local with -fpic. As the
description of D73228 says, LLVM's existing IPO optimization behaviors
(like -fno-semantic-interposition) and a previous assembly behavior give
us enough license to be aggressive here.

Instead of using the MOVGOT64r pseudo, use the existing
MO_PIC_BASE_OFFSET support on symbol operands. Now I don't have to
create a "scratch register operand" for the pseudo to use, and the
register allocator can make better decisions.

Don't try to generate large PIC code for non-ELF targets. Neither COFF
nor MachO have relocations for large position independent code, and
users have been using "large PIC" code models to JIT 64-bit code for a
while now. With this change, if they are generating ELF code, their
JITed code will truly be PIC, but if they target MachO or COFF, it will
contain 64-bit immediates that directly reference external symbols. For
a JIT, that's perfectly fine.
