Fangrui Song 92b5b980d2 [ELF] Postpone evaluation of ORIGIN/LENGTH in a MEMORY command ...

```
createFiles(args)
 readDefsym
 readerLinkerScript(*mb)
  ...
   readMemory
    readMemoryAssignment("ORIGIN", "org", "o") // eagerly evaluated
target = getTarget();
link(args)
 writeResult<ELFT>()
  ...
   finalizeSections()
    script->processSymbolAssignments()
     addSymbol(cmd) // with this patch, evaluated here
```

readMemoryAssignment eagerly evaluates ORIGIN/LENGTH and returns an uint64_t.
This patch postpones the evaluation to make

* --defsym and symbol assignments
* `CONSTANT(COMMONPAGESIZE)` (requires a non-null `lld::elf::target`)

work. If the expression somehow requires interaction with memory
regions, the circular dependency may cause the expression to evaluate to
a strange value. See the new test added to memory-err.s
