The actual intention is that no dynamic relocation exists. However, some
GNU ld ports produce unneeded R_*_NONE. (If a port is not care enough to
determine the exact .rel[a].dyn size, the trailing zeros become R_*_NONE
relocations. E.g. powerpc64le ld as of 2.38 has the issue with
defconfig.) R_*_NONE are generally no-op in the dynamic loaders. So just
ignore them.

With the change, we can remove ARCH_REL_TYPE_ABS. ARCH_REL_TYPE_ABS is a
bit misnomer as ports may check RELAVETIVE/GLOB_DAT/JUMP_SLOT which are
not called "absolute relocations". (The patch is motivated by the arm64
port missing R_AARCH64_RELATIVE.)

While here, replace "egrep" with "grep" as "egrep" is deprecated in GNU
grep 3.7.
