    LoongArch: Allow la.got -> la.pcrel relaxation for shared object
    
    Even in shared objects, la.got -> la.pcrel relaxation can still be
    performed for symbols with hidden visibility. For example, if a.c is:
    
        extern int x;
        int f() { return x++; }
    
    and b.c is:
    
        int x = 114514;
    
    If compiling and linking with:
    
        gcc -shared -fPIC -O2 -fvisibility=hidden a.c b.c
    
    Then the la.got in a.o should be relaxed to la.pcrel, and the resulted f
    should be like:
    
        pcaddi  $t0, x
        ldptr.w $a0, $t0, 0
        addi.w  $t1, $a0, 1
        stptr.w $t1, $t0, 0
        ret
    
    Remove bfd_link_executable from the condition of la.got -> la.pcrel
    relaxation so this will really happen.  The SYMBOL_REFERENCES_LOCAL
    check is enough not to wrongly relax preemptable symbols (for e.g.
    when -fvisibility=hidden is not used).
    
    Note that on x86_64 this is also relaxed and the produced code is like:
    
        lea x(%rip), %rdx
        mov (%rdx), %rax
        lea 1(%rax), %ecx
        mov %ecx, (%rdx)
        ret
    
    Tested by running ld test suite, bootstrapping and regtesting GCC with
    the patched ld, and building and testing Glibc with the patched ld.  No
    regression is observed.
