Previously, when symbol A is renamed B, both A and B end up having
the same name. This is because name is a symbol's attribute, and
we memcpy symbols for symbol renaming.
This pathc saves the original symbol name and restore it after memcpy
to keep the original name.
This patch shouldn't change program's meaning, but names in symbol
tables make more sense than before.

I found this while trying to build u-boot. It uses -Ttext in
combination with linker scripts.
My first reaction was to change the linker scripts to have the correct
value, but I found that it is actually quite convenient to have -Ttext
take precedence.
By having just
.text : { *(.text) }
In the script, they can define the text address in a single Makefile
and pass it to ld with -Ttext and for the C code with
-DFoo=value. Doing the same with linker scripts would require them to
be generated during the build.

This patch adds support for segment NONE in linker scripts which enables the
specification that a section should not be assigned to any segment.

In r305364, Rui changed the mechanism that parses -z option values slightly.
This caused a bug, as demonstrated by this test, which now fails:

# RUN: ld.lld %t.o -o %t -z max-page-size

Before, the link succeeded and set the max-page-size to the target default.
After we get the following two error messages:
"invalid max-page-size: "
"max-page-size: value isn't a power of 2"
The latter error is because an uninitialised variable ends up being passed back
to getMaxPageSize).
This change ensures we only get the first error.

This is probably the main patch left in unifying our intermediary
representation.
It moves the creation of default commands before section sorting. This
has the nice effect that we now have one location where we decide
where an orphan section should be placed.
Before this patch sortSections would decide the relative location of
orphan sections to other sections, but it was up to placeOrphanSection
to decide on the exact location.
We now only sort sections we created since the linker script is
already in the correct order.

Currently we do layout as if non alloc sections had an actual address
and then set it to zero. This produces a few odd results where a
symbol has an address that is inconsistent with the section address.
The simplest way to fix it is probably to just set the address earlier.
The behavior of bfd seems to be similar, but it only sets the non
alloc section address is missing from the linker script or if the
script has an explicit " : 0" setting the address of the output
section (which the default script does).

The ELF standard defines that the SHT_GROUP section as follows:
- its sh_link has the symbol index, and
- the symbol name is used to uniquify section groups.
Object files created by GNU gold does not seem to comply with the
standard. They have this additional rule:
- if the symbol has no name and a STT_SECTION symbol, a section
name is used instead of a symbol name.
If we don't do anything for this, the linker fails with a mysterious
error message if input files are generated by gas. It is unfortunate
but I think we need to support it.

Currently the freebsd early boot code fails to link. The issue reduces
to 16 bit code at position 0x7000 wanting to jump to position
0x9000. That is represented in the .o file as a relocation with no
symbol and an addend of 0x9000 - 2 (The -2 is because i386 uses the ip
after the current instruction for jumps).
If the addend is interpreted as signed (it should), it is -28674. In a
32 bit architecture, that is the address 0xffff8ffe. To get there from
0x7000 we have to add 4294909950 (too big) or subtract 57346 (too
small). We then produce an error.
What lld is missing is the fact that at runtime this will actually be
a 16 bit architecture and adding 0x1ffe produces 0x8ffe which is the
correct result in 16 bits (-28674).
Since we have a 16 bit addend and a 16 bit PC, the relocation can move
the PC to any 16 bit address and that is the only thing we really need
to check: if the address we are pointing to fits in 16 bits. This is
unfortunately hard to do since we have to delay subtracting the PC and
if we want to do that outside of Target.cpp, we have to move the
overflow check out too. An incomplete patch that tries to do that is
at https://reviews.llvm.org/D34070
This patch instead just relaxes the check. Since the value we have is
the destination minus the PC and the PC is 16 bits, it should fit in
17 bits if the destination fits in 16 too.
bfd had a similar issue for some time and got a similar fix:

SHF_GROUP bit doesn't make sense in executables or DSOs, so linkers are
expected to remove that bit from section flags. We did that when we create
output sections.
This patch is to do that earlier than before. Now the flag is dropped when
we instantiate input section objects.
This change improves ICF. Previously, two sections that differ only in
SHF_GROUP flag were not merged, because when the control reached ICF,
the flag was still there. Now the flag is dropped before reaching to ICF,
so the difference is ignored naturally.
This issue was found by pcc.

This member holds extra information, whose interpretation depends on the section type.
If the sh_flags field for this section header includes the attribute SHF_INFO_LINK,

SHF_INFO_LINK
The sh_info field of this section header holds a section header table index.
Since sh_info for SHT_REL[A] sections should contain the section header index of the
