Similar to D92113. Currently `clang -fstack-size-section -fno-unique-section-names`
sets the linked-to symbol to the first `.text`, which is:
* incorrect for COMDAT sections
* inferior for non-COMDAT sections in -ffunction-sections mode (poor --gc-sections: .stack_sizes cannot be separately discarded)
Note, if the section symbol can be referenced in more places (if the
function begin symbol does not apply), we probably should consider
defining a different BeginSymbol for sections with ",unique" linkage.

With compilation fix.
Original commit message:
D39788 added a '.stack-size' section containing metadata on function stack sizes
to output ELF files behind the new -stack-size-section flag.
This change does following two things on top:
1) Imagine the case when there are -ffunction-sections flag given and there are text sections in COMDATs.
The patch adds a '.stack-size' section into corresponding COMDAT group, so that linker will be able to
eliminate them fast during resolving the COMDATs.
2) Patch sets a SHF_LINK_ORDER flag and links '.stack-size' with the corresponding .text.
With that linker will be able to do -gc-sections on dead stack sizes sections.
