scripts/sorttable: Use normal sort if theres no relocs in the mcount section

When ARM 64 is compiled with gcc, the mcount_loc section will be filled
with zeros and the addresses will be located in the Elf_Rela sections. To
sort the mcount_loc section, the addresses from the Elf_Rela need to be
placed into an array and that is sorted.

But when ARM 64 is compiled with clang, it does it the same way as other
architectures and leaves the addresses as is in the mcount_loc section.

To handle both cases, ARM 64 will first try to sort the Elf_Rela section,
and if it doesn't find any functions, it will then fall back to the
sorting of the addresses in the mcount_loc section itself.
