Skip PLT for function pointer initialization

We use its PLT entry to initialize function pointer at run-time.  If
there is no other usage for the PLT entry, we can generate run-time
function pointer relocations in read-write section, which can be
resolved by dynamic linker, to initialize function pointers.  It avoids
the extra indirect branch overhead in PLT.

* elf32-i386.c (elf_i386_link_hash_entry): Add
func_pointer_refcount.
(elf_i386_link_hash_newfunc): Clear func_pointer_refcount.

(elf_i386_copy_indirect_symbol): Also copy
func_pointer_refcount.

(elf_i386_allocate_dynrelocs): Don't create the PLT entry if
there are only function pointer relocations which can be
resolved at run-time.  Keep dynanamic relocations for run-time
function pointer initialization.

relocations.
