In the change that added `--gap-fill`, the condition to choose the
sections to write in `BinaryWriter::write()` did not exclude zero-size
sections. However, zero-size sections did not have correct offsets
assigned in `BinaryWriter::finalize()`. The result is either a failed
assertion, or memory corruption due to writing to the buffer beyond its
size.
To fix this, exclude zero-size sections from writing. Also, add a zero-size
section to the test, which would trigger the problem.
The tests added in PR #65815 fail on Apple buildbot because the `od`
printed addresses have a different number of leading zeroes. Mask
leading zeroes with a regex.
To support the `od` output format on z/OS, add `--ignore-case` to FileCheck.
`--gap-fill <value>` fills the gaps between sections with a specified
8-bit value, instead of zero.
`--pad-to <address>` pads the output binary up to the specified load
address, using the 8-bit value from `--gap-fill` or zero.
These options are only supported for ELF input and binary output.
As of now, llvm-objcopy silently ignores a provided regex if it doesn't
compile.
This patch adds returning an error saying that a regex couldn't be
compiled, along with the compilation error message.

Update this diagnostic to mention the reason (unmatched '['), matching
the other diagnostic about stray '\'. The original pattern is omitted,
as some users may mention the original pattern in another position, not
repeating it.
Previously when objcopy generated section headers, it padded the LEB
that encodes the section size out to 5 bytes, matching the behavior of
clang. This is correct, but results in a binary that differs from the
input. This can sometimes have undesirable consequences (e.g. breaking
source maps).
This change makes the object reader remember the size of the LEB
encoding in the section header, so that llvm-objcopy can reproduce it
exactly. For sections not read from an object file (e.g. that
llvm-objcopy is adding itself), pad to 5 bytes.

Currently, objcopy cannot set the new flag SHF_X86_64_LARGE. This change introduces the named flag "large" which translates to that section flag.
An "invalid argument" error is produced if a user attempts to set the flag on an architecture other than X86_64.

llvm-objcopy should not insert padding before a section if its
physical addresses is not aligned to section's alignment. This
behavior will match GNU objcopy and is important for embedded images
where the physical address is used to store the initial data image.
The loader typically will copy this image using a start symbol
created by the linker. If llvm-objcopy inserts padding before such a
section, the symbol address will not match the location in the image.

Originally the test has a bug: in the input YAML `.symtab.dyn` section has a type
repeated twice with different values (SHT_SYMTAB and SHT_NOBITS). YAML parser
took SHT_NOBITS as a type of the section, so the test wasn't checking the desired
case.

SHF_ALLOC flag is not removed when --strip-all-gnu flag present.

getRawNumberOfSymbols() assumes that a symbol table exists, which isn't
always guaranteed, while getNumberOfSymbols() handles and tolerates objects
without a symbol table. When there is a symbol table, both methods return
the same value.
Also add a test to ensure we don't regress in this regard. The test
generates a basic COFF object with symbols and overrides the symbol table
pointer with zeros to craft the input required to verify llvm-objcopy works
as expected in this scenario.
This used %zu to print a uint64_t type. z is for size_t so on 32 bit
we tried to treat it as a 32 bit number.
Use PRIu64 instead to print as 64 bit everywhere.

However the triple for our Arm bots is usually like:

With "eabihf" on the end. I assume before we just checked for
"linux-gnu" being in the triple at all but now it is a proper
regex match.
Add .* on the end to account for the ABI tag on the end.
Implicit cast between char* and StringRef when writing sections.

If we don't want to set PointerToRawData, for an empty section,
we do must set it to zero explicitly. Some object file generators
do set it to zero for empty sections, while others set a nonzero
value pointing at the end of the previous section.
If the value was nonzero on input, we need to update it - either
setting it to zero, or to a valid offset in the output file (not
out of bounds)
This fixes https://github.com/mstorsjo/llvm-mingw/issues/313.
Testing this is tricky, because we can't use yaml2obj, since that
doesn't produce object files with nonzero PointerToRawData for
empty sections. We can use llvm-mc to assemble a small file
(assuming that LLVM's MC layer keeps this behaviour), or bundle
a small binary object file. I opted for using llvm-mc for now here
(with a test that it actually does keep this property), but I don't
mind changing it to a canned object file to make the test less brittle.

The exports trie and the chained fixups where in the opposite order, and
function starts happenned before them, instead of after them.
Restore the correct order and rewrite the code to make it easier to move
around in the future if needed by reusing the `Offset` variable and
keeping both the `StartOf...` and the size of each piece together.
This was found out while trying to use the system strip in a binary

To match the two behaviors, postpone --rename-section and allow its use together

As a side effect, --rename-section=.foo1=.foo2 --add-section=.foo1=/dev/null
leads to .foo2 while GNU objcopy surprisingly produces .foo1 (so
--set-section-flags --add-section --rename-section do not form a total order).
