[PATCH 3/6] aix: remove handlers for negative r_symndx in relocate_section

[CHIGOT, CLEMENT]

r_symndx can't be negative AFAIK. Thus all the checks are useless.
I still let a single BFD_ASSERT if it even happens. In this case,
revert this commit and maybe adds some checks in new relocation
functions.

2020-10-29  Clément Chigot  <clement.chigot@atos.net>

        * coff-rs6000.c (xcoff_reloc_type_toc): Remove negative
        rel->r_symndx handler.
        (xcoff_reloc_type_br): Likewize.
        (xcoff_ppc_relocate_section): Add BFD_ASSERT to prevent negative
        rel->r_symndx instead of a single if.
        * coff64-rs6000.c (xcoff64_reloc_type_br): Remove negative
        rel->r_symndx handler.
        (xcoff64_ppc_relocate_section): Addd BFD_ASSERT to prevent
        negative rel->r_symndx.
