bpf: gas: consolidate handling of immediate overflows

This commit changes the BPF GAS port in order to handle immediate
overflows the same way than the clang BPF assembler:

- For an immediate field of N bits, any written number (positive or
  negative) whose two's complement encoding fit in N its is accepted.
  This means that -2 is the same than 0xffffffe.  It is up to the
  instructions to decide how to interpret the encoded value.

- Immediate fields in jump instructions are no longer relaxed.
  Relaxing to jump instructions with wider range is only performed
  when expressions are involved.

- The manual is updated to document this, and testsuite adapted
  accordingly.

Tested in x86_64-linux-gnu host, bpf-unknown-none target.
