Fangrui Song c49f83b6e9 [ELF] Don't advance sh_offset for an empty section whose PT_LOAD is removed (due to p_memsz=0)
removeEmptyPTLoad() removes empty (p_memsz=0) PT_LOAD segments.  In
assignFileOffsets(), setFileOffset() unnecessarily advances file offsets
for containing empty sections.

This is exposed by arm Linux kernel's multi_v5_defconfig
(see https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45632)

This patch clears OutputSection::ptLoad if ptLoad is removed by
removeEmptyPTLoad(). Conceptually this removes "dangling" references.

Fangrui Song 5c86b08a6f [ELF][test] Improve tests
Prepare for the upcomong change that removes unneeded sh_offset
advancement for empty sections whose PT_LOAD are removed.

George Rimar dee900ae59 [LLD][ELF] - Do not remove empty sections referenced in LOADADDR/ADDR commands.
This is https://bugs.llvm.org//show_bug.cgi?id=38750.

If script references empty sections in LOADADDR/ADDR commands

.empty  : { *(.empty ) }
.text   : AT(LOADADDR (.empty) + SIZEOF (.empty)) { *(.text) }
then an empty section will be removed and LOADADDR/ADDR will evaluate to null.
It is not that user may expect from using of the generic script, what is a common case.
