Subject: [PATCH] NCG: AArch64 - Add -finter-module-far-jumps.
When enabled the arm backend will assume jumps to targets outside of the
current module are further than 128MB away.
This will allow for code to work if:
* The current module results in less than 128MB of code.
* The whole program is loaded within a 4GB memory region.
We have seen a few reports of broken linkers (#24648) where this flag might allow
a program to compile/run successfully at a very small performance cost.
