So that when mixing small and large text, large text stays out of the way of the rest of the binary. Place large RX sections at the beginning rather than at the end so that with `--no-rosegment`, the large text and rodata share a single PT_LOAD segment. Place large RWX sections at the end to keep writable and readonly sections separate. Clang started emitting the large section flag for `.ltext` sections in #73037.
