[lld][ELF] Allow data.rel.ro.hot and .data.rel.ro.unlikely to be RELRO (#148920)
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-profile-guided-static-data-partitioning/83744
proposes to partition a static data section (like `.data.rel.ro`) into
two sections, one grouping the cold ones and the other grouping the
rest.

lld requires all relro sections to be contiguous. To place
`.data.rel.ro.unlikely` in the middle of all relro sections, this change
proposes to add `.data.rel.ro.unlikely` explicitly as RELRO section.
