riscv: switch to relative alternative entries
Instead of using absolute addresses for both the old instrucions and the alternative instructions, use offsets relative to the alt_entry values. So this not only cuts the size of the alternative entry, but also meets the prerequisite for patching alternatives in the vDSO, since absolute alternative entries are subject to dynamic relocation, which is incompatible with the vDSO building.
