(Fixed an issue about GOT on a copy relocated alias.)
(Fixed an issue about not creating r_addend=0 IRELATIVE for unreferenced non-preemptible ifunc.)
The idea is to make scanRelocations mark some actions are needed (GOT/PLT/etc)
and postpone the real work to postScanRelocations. It gives some flexibility:
* Make it feasible to support .plt.got (PR32938): we need to know whether GLOB_DAT and JUMP_SLOT are both needed.
* Make non-preemptible IFUNC handling slightly cleaner: avoid setting/clearing sym.gotInIgot
* -z nocopyrel: report all copy relocation places for one symbol
* Make GOT deduplication feasible
* Make parallel relocation scanning feasible (if we can avoid all stateful operations and make Symbol attributes atomic), but parallelism may not be the appealing choice
Since this patch moves a large chunk of code out of ELFT templates. My x86-64
executable is actually a few hundred bytes smaller.
For ppc32-ifunc-nonpreemptible-pic.s: I remove absolute relocation references to non-preemptible ifunc
because absolute relocation references are incorrect in -fpie mode.

Make one change: when the OutputSection is nullptr (due to /DISCARD/ or garbage
collected BssSection (replaceCommonSymbols)), discard the SyntheticSection as well.
Fix r285764: there is no guarantee that Out::first is placed before other
static data members of `struct Out`. After `bufferStart` was introduced, this
out-of-bounds write is destined in many compilers. It is likely benign, though.
And move `Out::elfHeader->size` assignment beside `Out::elfHeader->sectionIndex`
For -z separate-code and -z separate-loadable-segments:
When RW is present, the RX to RW transition is aligned with max-page-size.
When RW is absent, the RX to non-SHF_ALLOC transition should use max-page-size as well.
BaseCommand was picked when PHDRS/INSERT/etc were not implemented. Rename it to
SectionCommand to match `sectionCommands` and make it clear that the commands
are used in SECTIONS (except a special case for SymbolAssignment).
Also, improve naming of some BaseCommand variables (base -> cmd).
This partially reverts r315409: the description applies to LinkerScript, but not
to OutputSection.
The name "sectionCommands" is used in both LinkerScript::sectionCommands and
OutputSection::sectionCommands, which may lead to confusion.
"commands" in OutputSection has no ambiguity because there are no other types
of commands.
An orphan section should be placed in the same memory region as its
anchor section if the latter specifies the memory region explicitly.
If there is no explicit assignment for the anchor section in the linker
script, its memory region is selected by matching attributes, and the
same should be done for the orphan section.
Before the patch, some scripts that were handled smoothly in GNU ld
caused an "error: no memory region specified for section" in lld.

This reverts commit 5cbec88cbf1c8d06030b84ebf17f5eebc3e3f1f9.
Vitaly said that 2faac77f26dee2a1367f373180573ea9c56efed1 actually works.
Sanitizer's armv7-linux-androideabi24 configuration has other issues which haven't been identified yet, but that's unrelated to the empty symbol name issue.
If segments are defined in a linker script, placing an orphan section
before the found closest-rank section can result in adding it in a
previous segment and changing flags of that segment. This happens if
the orphan section has a lower sort rank than the found section. To
avoid that, the patch forces orphan sections to be moved after the
found section if segments are explicitly defined.

Similar to D69607 but for archive member extraction unrelated to GC. This patch adds --why-extract=.
Prior art:
GNU ld -M prints
```
Archive member included to satisfy reference by file (symbol)
a.a(a.o) main.o (a)
b.a(b.o) (b())
```
-M is mainly for input section/symbol assignment <-> output section mapping
(often huge output) and the information may appear ad-hoc.
Apple ld64
```
__Z1bv forced load of b.a(b.o)
_a forced load of a.a(a.o)
```
It doesn't say the reference file.
Arm's proprietary linker
```
Selecting member vsnprintf.o(c_wfu.l) to define vsnprintf.
...
Loading member vsnprintf.o from c_wfu.l.
definition: vsnprintf
reference : _printf_a
```
---
--why-extract= gives the user the full data (which is much shorter than GNU ld
-Map). It is easy to track a chain of references to one archive member with a
one-liner, e.g.
```
% ld.lld main.o a_b.a b_c.a c.a -o /dev/null --why-extract=- | tee stdout
reference extracted symbol
main.o a_b.a(a_b.o) a
a_b.a(a_b.o) b_c.a(b_c.o) b()
b_c.a(b_c.o) c.a(c.o) c()
% ruby -ane 'BEGIN{p={}}; p[$F[1]]=[$F[0],$F[2]] if $.>1; END{x="c.a(c.o)"; while y=p[x]; puts "#{y[0]} extracts #{x} to resolve #{y[1]}"; x=y[0] end}' stdout
b_c.a(b_c.o) extracts c.a(c.o) to resolve c()
a_b.a(a_b.o) extracts b_c.a(b_c.o) to resolve b()
main.o extracts a_b.a(a_b.o) to resolve a
```
Archive member extraction happens before --gc-sections, so this may not be a live path
under --gc-sections, but I think it is a good approximation in practice.
* Specifying a file avoids output interleaving with --verbose.
* Required `=` prevents accidental overwrite of an input if the user forgets `=`. (Most of compiler drivers' long options accept `=` but not ` `)

This is somewhat of a repeat of D66658 but for sections in PT_TLS
segments. Although such sections don't need to be aligned such that
address and offset are congruent modulo the page size, they do need
to be congruent modulo the segment alignment, otherwise the
whole PT_TLS will be unaligned. We therefore use the normal calculation
to determine the section's address within the PT_LOAD rather than
bailing out early due to being SHT_NOBITS.

`clang -fuse-ld=lld -static-pie -fpie` produced executable
currently crashes and this patch makes it work.
See https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27164

While it seems unreasonable to keep csu/libc-start.c ARCH_APPLY_IREL unclear in
static-pie mode and have an unneeded diff -u =(ld.bfd --verbose) =(ld.bfd -pie
--verbose) difference, glibc folks don't want to fix their code.
I feel sad about that but this patch can remove an iffy condition for lld/ELF
as well: `needsInterpSection()`.
There used to be many cases where addends for Elf_Rel were not emitted in
the final object file (mostly when building for MIPS64 since the input .o
files use RELA but the output uses REL). These cases have been fixed since,
but this patch adds a check to ensure that the written values are correct.
It is based on a previous patch that I added to the CHERI fork of LLD since
we were using MIPS64 as a baseline. The work has now almost entirely
shifted to RISC-V and Arm Morello (which use Elf_Rela), but I thought
it would be useful to upstream our local changes anyway.
This patch adds a (hidden) command line flag --check-dynamic-relocations
that can be used to enable these checks. It is also on by default in
assertions builds for targets that handle all dynamic relocations kinds
that LLD can emit in Target::getImplicitAddend(). Currently this is
enabled for ARM, MIPS, and I386.

This patch changes the DynamicReloc class to store an enum instead
of the overloaded useSymVA member to make it easier to understand
and fix incorrect addends being written in some corner cases. The
change is motivated by a follow-up review that checks the value of
implicit Elf_Rel addends written to the output file.
This patch fixes an incorrect output when using `-z rela` for i386 files
with R_386_GOT32 relocations (not that this really matters since it's an
unsupported configuration).
Storing the relocation expression kind also addresses an incorrect addend
FIXME in ppc64-abs64-dyn.s introduced in D63383.
DynamicReloc now also has a special case for the MIPS TLS relocations
(DynamicReloc::AgainstSymbolWithTargetVA) since the
R_MIPS_TLS_TPREL{32/64} the symbol VA to the GOT for preemptible
symbols. I'm not sure if the symbol value actually should be written
for R_MIPS_TLS_TPREL32, but this patch does not attempt to change
that behaviour.

During PHDR creation, the case where an output section does not require a
PT_LOAD header but still occupies memory in the current VMA region was not handled.
If such an output section interleaves two output sections that have the same
VMA and LMA regions set, we would previously re-use the existing PT_LOAD header
for the second output section.
However, since the memory region is not contiguous, we need to start a new PT_LOAD
segment.

Currently, when reporting unresolved symbols in shared libraries, if an
undefined symbol is firstly seen in a regular object file that shadows
the reference for the same symbol in a shared object. As a result, the
error for the unresolved symbol in the shared library is not reported.
If referencing sections in regular object files are discarded because of
'--gc-sections', no reports about such symbols are generated, and the
linker finishes successfully, generating an output image that fails on
the run.
The patch fixes the issue by keeping symbols, which should be checked,
for each shared library separately.

If the number of sections changes, which is common for re-links after
incremental updates, the section order may change drastically.
Special case -1 to reverse input sections. This is a stable transform.
The section order is more resilient to incremental updates. Usually the
code issue (e.g. Static Initialization Order Fiasco, assuming pointer
comparison result of two unrelated objects) is due to the relative order
between two problematic input files A and B. Checking the regular order
and the reversed order is sufficient.

Fixes PR48523. When the linker errors with "output file too large",
one question that comes to mind is how the section sizes differ from
what they were previously. Unfortunately, this information is lost

makes it so that the error message includes the sizes of the largest
sections.
