Replace @PLT with @GOTPCREL(%rip) in call
Since __libc_start_main is called very early, lazy binding isn't relevant
here.  Use indirect branch via GOT to avoid extra branch to PLT slot.

	[BZ #19745]
	* sysdeps/x86_64/start.S (_start): __libc_start_main@PLT
	with *__libc_start_main@GOTPCREL(%rip) in call.
