Thinking more. ADDR/UADDR distinction probably makes little sense.
I withdraw my proposal that teachs gas to emit UADDR.

Some ld conversion rules can probably be deleted:

Aligned R_PPC64_UADDR64 -> R_PPC64_ADDR64 is definitely not needed
Misaligned R_PPC64_ADDR64 -> R_PPC64_UADDR64 I am not clear on this one, but I
guess it probably doesn't hurt if misaligned R_PPC64_ADDR64 or R_PPC64_RELATIVE
is generated, especially on powerpc64le (defaults to -mcpu=power8)
