cmd/internal/goobj: store relocation type as uint16

Browse source 
Currently, relocation type is stored as uint8 in object files, as
Go relocations do not exceed 255. In the linker, however, it is
used as a 16-bit type, because external relocations can exceed
255. The linker has to store the extra byte in a side table. This
complicates many things.

Just store it as uint16 in object files. This simplifies things,
with a small cost of increasing the object file sizes.
