objtool: Consolidate rel/rela handling

The GElf_Rel[a] structs have more similarities than differences. It's
safe to hard-code the assumptions about their shared fields as they will
never change. Consolidate their handling where possible, getting rid of
duplicated code.

Also, at least for now we only ever create rela sections, so simplify
the relocation creation code to be rela-only.
