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.

Windows does not allow opened files to be removed. This patch
fixes two types of errors.
- Output file being the same as input file. Because LLD itself
holds a file descriptor of the input file, it cannot create an
output file with the same name as a new file.
- Removing files before releasing MemoryBuffer objects.
These tests are not failing no because MemoryBuffer happens to
decide not to use mmap on these files. But we shouldn't rely on
that behavior.

You can force input section alignment within an output section by using SUBALIGN. The
value specified overrides any alignment given by input sections, whether larger or smaller.
SUBALIGN is used in many projects in the wild.

We only support assignments inside SECTIONS, but this does not match
the behavior of GNU linker which also allows them outside SECTIONS.
The only restriction on assignments outside SECTIONS is that they
cannot reference . (they have to be absolute expressions).

The linker will normally set the LMA equal to the VMA.
You can change that by using the AT keyword.
The expression lma that follows the AT keyword specifies
the load address of the section.
Patch implements this keyword.

After latest changes we combine input sections with
different attributes into single output section.
Problem here is that regular output sections does not
support adding mergeable input sections (and vise versa).
Patch just temporarily disables merging for now at
the same way we do for -O0 for example.
This change helps for linking FreeBSD kernel.

Previously filtering that was used worked incorrectly.
For example for next script it would just remove both sections completely:
SECTIONS {
. = 0x1000;
.aaa : ONLY_IF_RW { *(.aaa.*) }
. = 0x2000;
.aaa : ONLY_IF_RO { *(.aaa.*) }
}
Patch fixes above issues and adds testcase showing the issue. Testcase is a subset of
FreeBSD script which has:
.eh_frame : ONLY_IF_RO { KEEP (*(.eh_frame)) }
...
.eh_frame : ONLY_IF_RW { KEEP (*(.eh_frame)) }

Previously, we created two or more output sections if there are
input sections with the same name but with different attributes.
That is a wrong behavior. This patch fixes the issue.
One thing we need to do is to merge output section attributes.
Currently, we create an output section based on the first input
section's attributes. This may make a wrong output section
attributes. What we need to do is to bitwise-OR attributes.
We'll do it in a follow-up patch.

I faced that when tried to link FreeBSD kernel.
It was "duplicate symbol: _edata in (internal) and (internal)" error.
_data was a shared symbol that came from hack.so. At first it was replaced with DefinedRegular by the code
disabled in this patch and later when script tried to define the same symbol - the error was shown.
In the same situation (as given in testcase) ld defines them as UND. gold defines as ABS with zero value.
Patch just disables any operations of creating these symbols if script do layout.

According to spec:
"SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT will sort sections into descending order by
alignment before placing them in the output file"
Previously they were sorted into ascending order.

With the previous change, it is now obvious that readProvide in
this context appended new commands to a wrong command list.
It was mistakenly adding new commands to the top level.
Thus, all commands inside output section descriptions were
interpreted as they were written on top level.
PROVIDE command naturally requires symbol assignment support
in the output section description. We don't have that one yet.
I removed the implementation because there's no way to fix it now.
We can resurrect the test once we support the symbol assignment
(with a modification to detect errors that we failed to find as
described.)

Previously we supported only sorting by name.
When there are nested section sorting commands in linker script, there can be at most 1
level of nesting for section sorting commands.
SORT_BY_NAME (SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT (wildcard section pattern)). It will sort the input
sections by name first, then by alignment if 2 sections have the same name.
SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT (SORT_BY_NAME (wildcard section pattern)). It will sort the input
sections by alignment first, then by name if 2 sections have the same alignment.
SORT_BY_NAME (SORT_BY_NAME (wildcard section pattern)) is treated the same as SORT_
BY_NAME (wildcard section pattern).
SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT (SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT (wildcard section pattern)) is treated the
same as SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT (wildcard section pattern).
All other nested section sorting commands are invalid.
Patch implements that all above.
