-fdata-sections decides whether global variables go into different sections.
This is orthogonal to whether we place their metadata (`.data` or `asan_globals`) into different sections.
With -fno-data-sections, `-fsanitize-address-globals-dead-stripping` can still:
* deduplicate COMDAT `asan.module_ctor` and `asan.module_dtor`
* (with ld --gc-sections): for a data section (e.g. `.data`), if all global variables defined relative to it are unreferenced, discard them and associated `asan_globals` sections (rare but no need to exclude this case)
Similar to c7b90947bd for PE/COFF.
