When computing klp checksums, instructions with non-relocated jump/call
destination offsets are problematic because the offset values can change
when surrounding code has moved, causing the function to be incorrectly
marked as changed.
Specifically, that includes jumps from alternatives to the end of the
alternative, which from objtool's perspective are jumps to the end of
the alternative instruction block in the original function.
Note that 'jump_dest' jumps don't include sibling calls (those use
call_dest), nor do they include jumps to/from .cold sub functions (those
are cross-section and need a reloc).
Fix it by hashing the opcode bytes (excluding the immediate operand)
along with a position-independent representation of the destination.
For calls, use the function name, and for jumps, use the destination's
offset within its function.
[Note the "9 bit hole" comment was wrong: it has been 8 bits since
commit 70589843b36f ("objtool: Add option to trace function validation")
added the 'trace' field. Adding the 4-bit 'immediate_len' field now
leaves a 4-bit hole.]
