Relocation table in AmigaOS hunks

See original GitHub issue

I’m implementing Amiga Executable Hunks loader, and this binary format has relocation tables, like in PE/NE files. There is getRelocationTable() method in Program object, which returns RelocationTable object. This table has public Relocation add(Address addr, int type, long[] values, byte[] bytes, String symbolName); method, but I don’t understand what I must pass as type, values, and ‘bytes’ values.

Type is int, and values, that are used in other loaders, are for PE and ELF formats only.
