GNU objcopy uses bfd_elf_get_default_section_type to decide the candidate section type,
which roughly translates to our [a] (I assume SEC_COMMON implies SHF_ALLOC):
(!(Sec.Flags & ELF::SHF_ALLOC) || Flags & (SectionFlag::SecContents | SectionFlag::SecLoad)))
Then, it updates the section type in bfd/elf.c:elf_fake_sections if:
if (this_hdr->sh_type == SHT_NULL)
this_hdr->sh_type = sh_type; // common case
else if (this_hdr->sh_type == SHT_NOBITS
&& sh_type == SHT_PROGBITS
&& (asect->flags & SEC_ALLOC) != 0) // uncommon case
...
this_hdr->sh_type = sh_type;
If the following condition is met the uncommon branch is executed:
if (elf_section_type (osec) == SHT_NULL
&& (osec->flags == isec->flags
|| (final_link
&& ((osec->flags ^ isec->flags)
& ~(SEC_LINK_ONCE | SEC_LINK_DUPLICATES | SEC_RELOC)) == 0)))
I suggest we just ignore this clause and follow the common case
behavior, which is done in this patch. Rationales to do so:
If --set-section-flags is a no-op (osec->flags == isec->flags)
(corresponds to the "readonly" test in set-section-flags.test), GNU
objcopy will require (Sec.Flags & ELF::SHF_ALLOC). [a] is essentially:
Flags & (SectionFlag::SecContents | SectionFlag::SecLoad)
This special case is not really useful. Non-SHF_ALLOC SHT_NOBITS
sections do not make much sense and it doesn't matter if they are
SHT_NOBITS or SHT_PROGBITS.
For all other RUN lines in set-section-flags.test, the new behavior
matches GNU objcopy, i.e. this patch improves compatibility.

Summary:
Some flags accepted by --set-section-flags and --rename-section can change a SHT_NOBITS section to a SHT_PROGBITS section. Note that none of them can change a SHT_PROGBITS to SHT_NOBITS.
The full list (found via experimentation of individually setting each flag) that does this is: contents, load, noload, code, data, rom, and debug.
This was found by testing llvm-objcopy with the gnu binutils test suite, specifically this test case: https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=blob;f=binutils/testsuite/binutils-all/copy-1.d;h=f2b0d9e90df738c2891b4d5c7b62f62894b556ca;hb=HEAD

Summary:
This removes calls to `error()`/`reportError()` in the main driver (llvm-objcopy.cpp) as well as the associated argv-parsing (CopyConfig.cpp). `logAllUnhandledErrors()` is now the main way to print errors.
There are still a few uses from within the per-arch drivers, so we can't delete them yet... but almost!

Summary:
--set-section-flags is used to change the section flags (e.g. SHF_ALLOC) for given sections. The flags allowed are the same from the existing --rename-section=.old=.new[,flags] feature.
Additionally, make sure that --set-section-flag cannot be used with --rename-section (either the source or destination), since --rename-section accepts flags. This avoids ambiguity for something like "--rename-section=.foo=.bar,alloc --set-section-flag=.bar,code".
