[BOLT] Support instrumentation hook via DT_FINI_ARRAY (#67348)

BOLT currently hooks its its instrumentation finalization function via
`DT_FINI`. However, this method of calling finalization routines is not
supported anymore on newer ABIs like RISC-V. `DT_FINI_ARRAY` is
preferred there.

This patch adds support for hooking into `DT_FINI_ARRAY` instead if the
binary does not have a `DT_FINI` entry. If it does, `DT_FINI` takes
precedence so this patch should not change how the currently supported
instrumentation targets behave.

`DT_FINI_ARRAY` points to an array in memory of `DT_FINI_ARRAYSZ` bytes.
It consists of pointer-length entries that contain the addresses of
finalization functions. However, the addresses are only filled-in by the
dynamic linker at load time using relative relocations. This makes
hooking via `DT_FINI_ARRAY` a bit more complicated than via `DT_FINI`.

The implementation works as follows:
- While scanning the binary: find the section where `DT_FINI_ARRAY`
points to, r...
