arm: Fix SIGBUS on ARM when compiled with binutils 2.29
In binutils 2.29, the behavior of the ADR instruction changed so that 1 is added to the address of a Thumb function (previously nothing was added). This allows the loaded address to be passed to a BLX instruction and the correct mode change will occur. See: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21458 By using adr with a label that isn't annotated as a thumb function, we avoid the new behaviour in binutils 2.29 and get the same behaviour as in prior releases, and as in other assemblers (ms armasm.exe, clang's built in assembler) - an idea that Janne Grunau came up with.
