Duncan P. N. Exon Smith 0b73d71abb AsmPrinter: Compute absolute label difference directly
Create a low-overhead path for `EmitLabelDifference()` that emits a
emits an absolute number when (1) the output is an object stream and (2)
the two symbols are in the same data fragment.

This drops memory usage on Mach-O from 975 MB down to 919 MB (5.8%).
The only call is when `!doesDwarfUseRelocationsAcrossSections()` --
i.e., on Mach-O -- since otherwise an absolute offset from the start of
the section needs a relocation.  (`EmitLabelDifference()` is cheaper on
ELF anyway, since it creates 1 fewer temp symbol, and it gets called far
less often.  It's not clear to me if this is even a bottleneck there.)

(I'm looking at `llc` memory usage on `verify-uselistorder.lto.opt.bc`;
see r236629 for details.)
