Currently when we build input sections list in linker script
we ignore all rel[a] sections. That was done to support
scripts like .rela.dyn : { *(.rela.data) } for emit relocs.
Though as a result following scripts were also silently ignored:
/DISCARD/ : { *(.rela.plt)
/DISCARD/ : { *(.rela.dyn)
and we produced output with this sections. That is not ideal.
The solution this patch suggests is simple: do not ignore synthetic
rel[a] sections. That way we can enable common discarding logic
for them and report a proper error.
