[ELF][MIPS] Make R_MIPS_LO16 a relative relocation if it references _gp_disp symbol

The _gp_disp symbol designates offset between start of function and 'gp'
pointer into GOT. The following code is a typical MIPS function preamble
used to setup $gp register:

lui    $gp, %hi(_gp_disp)
addi   $gp, $gp, %lo(_gp_disp)

To calculate R_MIPS_HI16 / R_MIPS_LO16 relocations results we use
the following formulas:

%hi(_gp - P + A)
%lo(_gp - P + A + 4),
where _gp is a value of _gp symbol, A is addend, and P current address.

The R_MIPS_LO16 relocation references _gp_disp symbol is always the second
instruction. That is why we need four byte adjustments. The patch assigns
R_PC type for R_MIPS_LO16 relocation and adjusts its addend by 4. That fix
R_MIPS_LO16 calculation.
