arm64: add macros for common adrp usages
The adrp instruction is mostly used in combination with either an add, a ldr or a str instruction with the low bits of the referenced symbol in the 12-bit immediate of the followup instruction. Introduce the macros adr_l, ldr_l and str_l that encapsulate these common patterns.
