x86/asm: Use %a instead of %P operand modifier in asm templates
The "P" asm operand modifier is a x86 target-specific modifier. For x86_64, when used with a symbol reference, the "%P" modifier emits "sym" instead of "sym(%rip)". This property is currently used to issue bare symbol reference. The generic "a" operand modifier should be used instead. The "a" asm operand modifier substitutes a memory reference, with the actual operand treated as address. For x86_64, when a symbol is provided, the "a" modifier emits "sym(%rip)" instead of "sym", enabling shorter %rip-relative addressing. Also note that unlike GCC, clang emits %rip-relative symbol reference with "P" asm operand modifier, so the patch also unifies symbol handling with both compilers. No functional changes intended.
