Adds helpers for decoding/encoding the PC relative addresses for adrp.
This will be used for handling dynamic patching of 'adrp' instructions
in alternative code patching.

I'm a bit bothered by this one. We end-up with both
aarch64_insn_is_adr_adrp() *and* aarch64_insn_is_adrp() (and their
respective getters).

How about dropping adr_adrp, and explicitly having adr and adrp? There
is only two users in the tree, so that should be easy to address.

Thanks,

	M.
