9e5386ceae [ELF] - Linkerscript: Fixed SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT sorting order.
According to spec:
"SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT will sort sections into descending order by 
alignment before placing them in the output file"

Previously they were sorted into ascending order.

350ece4efb [ELF] - Linkerscript: support all kinds of sorting (including nested).
Previously we supported only sorting by name.

When there are nested section sorting commands in linker script, there can be at most 1
level of nesting for section sorting commands.

SORT_BY_NAME (SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT (wildcard section pattern)). It will sort the input
sections by name first, then by alignment if 2 sections have the same name.

SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT (SORT_BY_NAME (wildcard section pattern)). It will sort the input
sections by alignment first, then by name if 2 sections have the same alignment.

SORT_BY_NAME (SORT_BY_NAME (wildcard section pattern)) is treated the same as SORT_
BY_NAME (wildcard section pattern).

SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT (SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT (wildcard section pattern)) is treated the
same as SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT (wildcard section pattern).

All other nested section sorting commands are invalid.

Patch implements that all above.
