Similar to the alternative patching, use relative reference for original
instruction rather than absolute one, which saves 8 bytes for one entry
on x86_64.  And it could generate R_X86_64_PC32 relocation instead of
R_X86_64_64 relocation, which also reduces relocation metadata on
relocatable builds. And the alignment could be hard coded to be 4 now.
