This is the s390 port of 70627654 "x86, extable: Switch to relative
exception table entries".
Reduces the size of our exception tables by 50% on 64 bit builds.

Follow x86 and MIPS and sort the main exception table at build time.

x86 is now using relative rather than absolute addresses in its
exception table, so we add a sorter for these. If there are
relocations on the __ex_table section, they are redundant and probably
incorrect after the sort, so they are zeroed out leaving them valid
and consistent.
Also use the unaligned safe accessors from tools/{be,le}_byteshift.h

Using this build-time sort saves time booting as we don't have to burn
cycles sorting the exception table.
