objtool: Handle various symbol types of rodata

In the relocation section ".rela.rodata" of each .o file compiled with
LoongArch toolchain, there are various symbol types such as STT_NOTYPE,
STT_OBJECT, STT_FUNC in addition to the usual STT_SECTION, it needs to
use reloc symbol offset instead of reloc addend to find the destination
instruction in find_jump_table() and add_jump_table().

For the most part, an absolute relocation type is used for rodata. In the
case of STT_SECTION, reloc->sym->offset is always zero, and for the other
symbol types, reloc_addend(reloc) is always zero, thus it can use a simple
statement "reloc->sym->offset + reloc_addend(reloc)" to obtain the symbol
offset for various symbol types.
