Now that we have only SymbolBody as the symbol class. So, "SymbolBody"
is a bit strange name now. This is a mechanical change generated by

StringTableSection does not implement postThunkContents, so calling it on these

SymbolBody and Symbol were separated classes due to a historical reason.
Symbol used to be a pointer to a SymbolBody, and the relationship
between Symbol and SymbolBody was n:1.
r2681780 changed that. Since that patch, SymbolBody and Symbol are
allocated next to each other to improve memory locality, and they have
1:1 relationship now. So, the separation of Symbol and SymbolBody no
longer makes sense.
This patch merges them into one class. In order to avoid updating too
many places, I chose SymbolBody as a unified name. I'll rename it Symbol
in a follow-up patch.

When there is no SECTION commands given, all sections are
technically orphans, but now we handle script orphans sections
and regular "orphans" sections for non-scripted case differently,
though we can handle them at one place.

DSO is short for dynamic shared object, so the function name was a
little confusing because it sounded like it didn't work when we were
a creating statically-linked executable or something.
What we mean by "DSO" here is the current output file that we are
creating. Thus the new name. Alternatively, we could call it the current
ELF module, but "module" is a overloaded word, so I avoided that.

The Android relocation packing format is a more compact
format for dynamic relocations in executables and DSOs
that is based on delta encoding and SLEBs. An overview
of the format can be found in the Android source code:
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/bionic/+/refs/heads/master/tools/relocation_packer/src/delta_encoder.h
This patch implements relocation packing using that format.
This implementation uses a more intelligent algorithm for compressing
relative relocations than Android's own relocation packer. As a
result it can generally create smaller relocation sections than
that packer. If I link Chromium for Android targeting ARM32 I get a
.rel.dyn of size 174693 bytes, as compared to 371832 bytes with gold
and the Android packer.

It was reported (https://reviews.llvm.org/D38724#902841) that when we use
-ffunction-sections --emit-relocs build, REL[A] output section receives the name of first
input section, like .rela.text.first_function_in_text rather than .rela.text.
It is probably not really an issue as sh_info still points to correct target section, but
it does not look clean in output and allows internal section name to leak there,
what at least looks confusing and is not consistent with ld.bfd.
Patch changes this behavior so that target output section name is used as a base.

This change allows Thunks to be added on multiple passes. To do this we must
merge only the thunks added in each pass, and deal with thunks that have
drifted out of range of their callers.
A thunk may end out of range of its caller if enough thunks are added in
between the caller and the thunk. To handle this we create another thunk.

This change adds initial support for range extension thunks. All thunks must
be created within the first pass so some corner cases are not supported. A
follow up patch will add support for multiple passes.
With this change the existing tests arm-branch-error.s and
arm-thumb-branch-error.s now no longer fail with an out of range branch.
These have been renamed and tests added for the range extension thunk.

Summary:
The COFF linker and the ELF linker have long had similar but separate
Error.h and Error.cpp files to implement error handling. This change
introduces new error handling code in Common/ErrorHandler.h, changes the
COFF and ELF linkers to use it, and removes the old, separate
implementations.

r315292 introduced a change that's supposed to consistently ignore
"dead" output sections when placing orphans. Unfortunately, that
change doesn't handle the special case when the orphan section is
second to last section and the last section is dead (e.g. because
it's being discarded) introducing a regression in some cases.
This change handles this case by using the same predicate when
checking the last section.

"Commands" was ambiguous because in the linker script, everything is
a command. We used to handle only SECTIONS commands, and at the time,
it might make sense to call them the commands, but it is no longer
the case. We handle not only SECTIONS but also MEMORY, PHDRS, VERSION,
etc., and they are all commands.

HasSections is true if there is at least one SECTIONS linker
script command, and it is not directly related to whether we have
section objects or not. So I think the new name is better.

ScriptConfiguration was a class to contain parsed results of
linker scripts. LinkerScript is a class to interpret it.
That ditinction was needed because we haven't instantiated
LinkerScript early (because, IIRC, LinkerScript class was a
ELFT template function). So, when we parse linker scripts,
we couldn't directly store the result to a LinkerScript instance.
Now, that limitation is gone. We instantiate LinkerScript
at the very beginning of our main function. We can directly
store parse results to a LinkerScript instance.

We just don't need one with the current setup.
We only error on undefined references that are used by some
relocation.
If we managed to relax all uses of __tls_get_addr, no relocation uses
it and we don't produce an error.
This is less code and fixes the case were we fail to relax. Before we
would produce a broken output, but now we produce an error.

When findOrphanPos does the reverse search to find the OutputSection
preceding the orphan's insertion point, look for a live OutputSection
and ignore "dead" OutputSection's. This matches the behaviour of the
forward search performed earlier in this function.
Added test which without the above fix fails as a result of an orphan
executable section being incorrectly placed in a non-executable segment.

We used to call exitLld() from a leaf function, Writer::run(), because
we had objects on the stack whose dtors are expensive. Now we no longer
have such objects on the stack, so there's no reason to exist from the
leaf function.
llvm-svn: 314869
Currently LLD calls the `isMicroMips` routine to determine type of PLT entries
needs to be generated: regular or microMIPS. This routine checks ELF
header flags in the `FirstObj` to retrieve type of linked object files.
So if the first file does not contain microMIPS code, LLD will generate
PLT entries with regular (non-microMIPS) code only.
Ideally, if a PLT entry is referenced by microMIPS code only this entry
should contain microMIPS code, if a PLT entry is referenced by regular
code this entry should contain regular code. In a "mixed" case the PLT
entry can be either microMIPS or regular, but each "cross-mode-call" has
additional cost.
It's rather difficult to implement this ideal solution. But we can
assume that if there is an input object file with microMIPS code, the
most part of the code is microMIPS too. So we need to deduce type of PLT
entries based on finally calculated ELF header flags and do not check
only the first input object file.
This change implements this.
- The `getMipsEFlags` renamed to the `calcMipsEFlags`. The function
called from the `LinkerDriver::link`. Result is stored in
the Configuration::MipsEFlags field.
- The `isMicroMips` and `isMipsR6` routines access the `MipsEFlags`
field to get and check calculated ELF flags.
- New types of PLT records created when necessary.

Previously`InX::Got` and InX::MipsGot synthetic sections
were not removed if ElfSym::GlobalOffsetTable was defined.
ElfSym::GlobalOffsetTable is a symbol for _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_.
Patch moves ElfSym::GlobalOffsetTable check out from removeUnusedSyntheticSections.
Also note that there was no point to check ElfSym::GlobalOffsetTable for MIPS case
because InX::MipsGot::empty() always returns false for non-relocatable case, and in case
of relocatable output we do not create special symbols anyways.

afterwards if needed.
