Always use adr with __thumb2__.

Thumb2 addresses are a bit a mess, depending on whether a label is
interpreted as a function pointer value (for use with BX and BLX) or as
a program counter value (for use with PC-relative addressing). Clang's
integrated assembler mis-assembles this code. See
https://crbug.com/124610#c54 for details.

Instead, use the ADR pseudo-instruction which has clear semantics and
should be supported by every assembler that handles the OpenSSL Thumb2
code. (In other files, the ADR vs SUB conditionals are based on
__thumb2__ already. For some reason, this one is based on __APPLE__, I'm
guessing to deal with an older version of clang assembler.)

It's unclear to me which of clang or binutils is "correct" or if this is
even a well-defined notion beyond "whatever binutils does". But I will
note that https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/4669

 suggests binutils
has also changed behavior around this before.
