    Adjust pdata function table entries sorting for AArch64
    
    The .pdata section contains an array of function table entries that
    are used for exception handling. The entries should be sorted by
    begin address, which is usually the first 4 bytes RVA in the entry.
    Entry sizes are different for x64 and AArch64.
    This difference is addressed in this patch.
    
    This is the first patch in the patch series implementing
    Structured Exception Handling (SEH) for aarch64-w64-mingw32.

            * peXXigen.c (sort_x64_pdata): Rename from this ...
            (sort_pdata): ... to this.
            (defined): Use function_table_entry_size.
