LOG: [lldb] Fix unaligned writes in ObjectFileELF (#165759)

The code to apply relocations was sometimes creating unaligned
destination pointers. Instead of giving them an explicit type (i.e.
`uint64_t *`) and forcing the compiler to generate unaligned stores,
mark the pointer as `void *`. The compiler will figure out the correct
series of store instructions.
