Greg McGary 99930719c6 Handle overflow beyond the 127 common encodings limit
The common encodings table holds only 127 entries. The encodings index for compact entries is 8 bits wide, and indexes 127..255 are stored locally to each second-level page. Prior to this diff, lld would `fatal()` if encodings overflowed the 127 limit.

This diff populates a per-second-level-page encodings table as needed. When the per-page encodings table hits its limit, we must terminate the page. If such early termination would consume fewer entries than a regular (non-compact) encoding page, then we prefer the regular format.

Caveat: one reason the common-encoding table might overflow is because of DWARF debug-info references, which are not yet implemented and will come with a later diff.
