scripts/sorttable: Allow matches to functions before function entry
ARM 64 uses -fpatchable-function-entry=4,2 which adds padding before the
function and the addresses in the mcount_loc point there instead of the
function entry that is returned by nm. In order to find a function from nm
to make sure it's not an unused weak function, the entries in the
mcount_loc section needs to match the entries from nm. Since it can be an
instruction before the entry, add a before_func variable that ARM 64 can
set to 8, and if the mcount_loc entry is within 8 bytes of the nm function
entry, then it will be considered a match.
