The diagnostic is emitted for an unextracted lazy symbol but suppressed for an
undefined symbol. Suppressing the diagnostic for unextracted lazy symbol
probably makes more sense because (a) an unextracted lazy symbol is quite
similar to an undefined symbol and (b) an unextracted lazy symbol is different
from "no such symbol".

gnuHash and sysvHash are unchanged, otherwise LinkerScript::discard would

My x86-64 lld executable is 121+KiB smaller.
New deleteFallThruJmpInsn calls `make<JumpInstrMod>` which cannot be called
concurrently. Losing parallelism is unfortunate but we can think of a better
approach if parallelism here justifies itself.
It is fairly easy to forget SectionBase::repl after ICF.
Let ICF rewrite a Defined symbol's `section` field to avoid references to
SectionBase::repl in subsequent passes. This slightly improves the --icf=none
performance due to less indirection (maybe for --icf={safe,all} as well if most
symbols are Defined).
With this change, there is only one reference to `repl` (--gdb-index D89751).
We can undo f4fb5fd752 (`Move Repl to SectionBase.`)
but move `repl` to `InputSection` instead.

writeSections is typically a bottleneck.
This was used to track down the following bottlenecks:
* Output section .rela.dyn (9115d75117)
* Output section .debug_str (3aae04c744)
* posix_fallocate is slow for Linux tmpfs: D115957

(Fixed an issue about GOT on a copy relocated alias.)
(Fixed an issue about not creating r_addend=0 IRELATIVE for unreferenced non-preemptible ifunc.)
The idea is to make scanRelocations mark some actions are needed (GOT/PLT/etc)
and postpone the real work to postScanRelocations. It gives some flexibility:
* Make it feasible to support .plt.got (PR32938): we need to know whether GLOB_DAT and JUMP_SLOT are both needed.
* Make non-preemptible IFUNC handling slightly cleaner: avoid setting/clearing sym.gotInIgot
* -z nocopyrel: report all copy relocation places for one symbol
* Make GOT deduplication feasible
* Make parallel relocation scanning feasible (if we can avoid all stateful operations and make Symbol attributes atomic), but parallelism may not be the appealing choice
Since this patch moves a large chunk of code out of ELFT templates. My x86-64
executable is actually a few hundred bytes smaller.

Make one change: when the OutputSection is nullptr (due to /DISCARD/ or garbage
collected BssSection (replaceCommonSymbols)), discard the SyntheticSection as well.
Fix r285764: there is no guarantee that Out::first is placed before other
static data members of `struct Out`. After `bufferStart` was introduced, this
out-of-bounds write is destined in many compilers. It is likely benign, though.
And move `Out::elfHeader->size` assignment beside `Out::elfHeader->sectionIndex`
For -z separate-code and -z separate-loadable-segments:
When RW is present, the RX to RW transition is aligned with max-page-size.
When RW is absent, the RX to non-SHF_ALLOC transition should use max-page-size as well.
BaseCommand was picked when PHDRS/INSERT/etc were not implemented. Rename it to
SectionCommand to match `sectionCommands` and make it clear that the commands
are used in SECTIONS (except a special case for SymbolAssignment).
Also, improve naming of some BaseCommand variables (base -> cmd).
This partially reverts r315409: the description applies to LinkerScript, but not
to OutputSection.
The name "sectionCommands" is used in both LinkerScript::sectionCommands and
OutputSection::sectionCommands, which may lead to confusion.
"commands" in OutputSection has no ambiguity because there are no other types
of commands.
An orphan section should be placed in the same memory region as its
anchor section if the latter specifies the memory region explicitly.
If there is no explicit assignment for the anchor section in the linker
script, its memory region is selected by matching attributes, and the
same should be done for the orphan section.
Before the patch, some scripts that were handled smoothly in GNU ld
caused an "error: no memory region specified for section" in lld.

This reverts commit 5cbec88cbf.
Vitaly said that 2faac77f26 actually works.
Sanitizer's armv7-linux-androideabi24 configuration has other issues which haven't been identified yet, but that's unrelated to the empty symbol name issue.
If segments are defined in a linker script, placing an orphan section
before the found closest-rank section can result in adding it in a
previous segment and changing flags of that segment. This happens if
the orphan section has a lower sort rank than the found section. To
avoid that, the patch forces orphan sections to be moved after the
found section if segments are explicitly defined.

Similar to D69607 but for archive member extraction unrelated to GC. This patch adds --why-extract=.
Prior art:
GNU ld -M prints
```
Archive member included to satisfy reference by file (symbol)
a.a(a.o) main.o (a)
b.a(b.o) (b())
```
-M is mainly for input section/symbol assignment <-> output section mapping
(often huge output) and the information may appear ad-hoc.
Apple ld64
```
__Z1bv forced load of b.a(b.o)
_a forced load of a.a(a.o)
```
It doesn't say the reference file.

```
Selecting member vsnprintf.o(c_wfu.l) to define vsnprintf.
...
Loading member vsnprintf.o from c_wfu.l.
definition: vsnprintf
reference : _printf_a
```
---
--why-extract= gives the user the full data (which is much shorter than GNU ld
-Map). It is easy to track a chain of references to one archive member with a
one-liner, e.g.
```
% ld.lld main.o a_b.a b_c.a c.a -o /dev/null --why-extract=- | tee stdout
reference extracted symbol
main.o a_b.a(a_b.o) a
a_b.a(a_b.o) b_c.a(b_c.o) b()
b_c.a(b_c.o) c.a(c.o) c()
% ruby -ane 'BEGIN{p={}}; p[$F[1]]=[$F[0],$F[2]] if $.>1; END{x="c.a(c.o)"; while y=p[x]; puts "#{y[0]} extracts #{x} to resolve #{y[1]}"; x=y[0] end}' stdout
b_c.a(b_c.o) extracts c.a(c.o) to resolve c()
a_b.a(a_b.o) extracts b_c.a(b_c.o) to resolve b()
main.o extracts a_b.a(a_b.o) to resolve a
```
Archive member extraction happens before --gc-sections, so this may not be a live path
under --gc-sections, but I think it is a good approximation in practice.
* Specifying a file avoids output interleaving with --verbose.
* Required `=` prevents accidental overwrite of an input if the user forgets `=`. (Most of compiler drivers' long options accept `=` but not ` `)
