InputSections may contain MergeInputSection members which trigger
a segmentation fault when trying to cast them to InputSection.

With a synthetic merge section we can have, for example, a single
.rodata section with stings, fixed sized constants and non merge
constants.
I can be simplified further by not setting Entsize, but that is
probably better done is a followup patch.
This should allow some cleanup in the linker script code now that
every output section command maps to just one output section.

Currently lld will implicitly reserve space for the headers. This is
not the case is bfd, where it is the script responsibility to use
SIZEOF_HEADERS. This means that a script not using SIZEOF_HEADERS and
expecting the address of the first section to be 0 would fail with lld.
I am fixing that is the next commit. This one just makes the tests
explicitly use SIZEOF_HEADERS to avoid the dependency on the current
behaviour.

Since they end up going on the same PT_LOAD, there is no reason to
sort them. This matches bfd's behaviour and is user visible in the
placement of orphan sections.

In most cases that means just not checking the address when we don't
need it.
For some tests it is easier to just set . to a known value.

This fixes pr30367, but more importantly, it changes how we compute offsets.
Now offset computation in a walk over linker script commands, like the
rest of assignAddresses. IMHO this is simpler to understand and if we
ever have to create multiple outputsections or chunks to change how we
handle test/ELF/linkerscript/alternate-sections.s it should be easier
to do it.

Previously we combined sections by name if linkerscript was used.
For that we had to disable SHF_MERGE handling temporarily, but then
found that implementing it properly will require additional complexity layers like
subsections or something.
At the same time looks we can live with multiple output sections approach for now.
That patch do this change.
