Other then i386 code, x86-64 code asserted on unknown relocations (rather
than issuing a diagnostic). This patch puts in place a similar scheme as
used on i386 for dealing with unknown relocation types and gaps in the
relocation type numbering.

Built and tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.

	* elf64-x86-64.c (R_X86_64_standard, R_X86_64_vt_offset, R_X86_64_vt):
	New.
	(elf64_x86_64_info_to_howto): Use them. Don't assert validity of
	relocation types, issue diagnostic instead.
