Peter Collingbourne d8ae3e1fee x86_64: Fix calls to __morestack under the large code model.
Under the large code model, we cannot assume that __morestack lives within
2^31 bytes of the call site, so we cannot use pc-relative addressing. We
cannot perform the call via a temporary register, as the rax register may
be used to store the static chain, and all other suitable registers may be
either callee-save or used for parameter passing. We cannot use the stack
at this point either because __morestack manipulates the stack directly.

To avoid these issues, perform an indirect call via a read-only memory
location containing the address.

This solution is not perfect, as it assumes that the .rodata section
is laid out within 2^31 bytes of each function body, but this seems to
be sufficient for JIT.
