IFUNC resolvers may depend on tunables and cpu feature setup so
move static pie self relocation after those.

It is hard to guarantee that the ealy startup code does not rely
on relocations so this is a bit fragile. It would be more robust
to handle RELATIVE relocs early and only IRELATIVE relocs later,
but the current relocation processing code cannot do that.

The early startup code before relocation processing includes

  _dl_aux_init (auxvec);
  __libc_init_secure ();
  __tunables_init (__environ);
  ARCH_INIT_CPU_FEATURES ();

These are simple enough that RELATIVE relocs can be avoided.

__ehdr_start may require RELATIVE relocation so it was moved
later, fortunately ehdr and phdr are not used in the early code.
