[RISCV] Put data smaller than eight bytes to small data section

Because of gp = sdata_start_address + 0x800, gp with signed twelve-bit offset
could covert most of the small data section. Linker relaxation could transfer
the multiple data accessing instructions to a gp base with signed twelve-bit
offset instruction.
