[BOLT][instr] Avoid WX segment (#128982)

Browse Source 
BOLT instrumented binary today has a readable (R), writeable (W) and also
executable (X) segment, which Android system won't load due to its WX
attribute. Such RWX segment was produced because BOLT has a two step linking,
first for everything in the updated or rewritten input binary and next for
runtime library. Each linking will layout sections in the order of RX sections
followed by RO sections and then followed by RW sections. So we could end up
having a RW section `.bolt.instr.counters` surrounded by a number of RO and RX
sections, and a new text segment was then formed by including all RX sections
which includes the RW section in the middle, and hence the RWX segment. One
way to fix this is to separate the RW `.bolt.instr.counters` section into its
own segment by a). assigning the starting addresses for section
`.bolt.instr.counters` and its following section with regular page aligned
addresses and b). creating two extra program headers accordingly.
