Add a post-processing step to compilation of KVM nVHE hyp code which
calls a custom host tool (gen-hyprel) on the partially linked object
file (hyp sections' names prefixed).

The tool lists all R_AARCH64_ABS64 data relocations targeting hyp
sections and generates an assembly file that will form a new section
.hyp.reloc in the kernel binary. The new section contains an array of
32-bit offsets to the positions targeted by these relocations.

Since these addresses of those positions will not be determined until
linking of `vmlinux`, each 32-bit entry carries a R_AARCH64_PREL32
relocation with addend <section_base_sym> + <r_offset>. The linker of
`vmlinux` will therefore fill the slot accordingly.

This relocation data will be used at runtime to convert the kernel VAs
at those positions to hyp VAs.
