This is quite complicated because the CTF section's contents depend on
the final contents of the symtab and strtab, because it has two sections
whose contents are shuffled to be in 1:1 correspondence with the symtab,
and an internal strtab that gets deduplicated against the ELF strtab
(with offsets adjusted to point into the ELF strtab instead). It is
also compressed if large enough, so its size depends on its contents!
So we cannot construct it as early as most sections: we cannot even
*begin* construction until after the symtab and strtab are finalized.
Thankfully there is already one section treated similarly: compressed
debugging sections: the only differences are that compressed debugging
sections have extra handling to deal with their changing name if
compressed (CTF sections are always called ".ctf" for now, though we
have reserved ".ctf.*" against future use), and that compressed
debugging sections have previously-uncompressed content which has to be
stashed away for later compression, while CTF sections have no content
at all until we generate it (very late).
BFD also cannot do the link itself: libctf knows how to do it, and BFD
cannot call libctf directly because libctf already depends on bfd for
file I/O. So we have to use a pair of callbacks, one, examine_strtab,
which allows a caller to examine the symtab and strtab after
finalization (called from elf_link_swap_symbols_out(), right before the
symtabs are written, and after the strtab has been finalized), and one
which actually does the emission (called emit_ctf simply because it is
grouped with a bunch of section-specific late-emission function calls at
the bottom of bfd_elf_final_link, and a section-specific name seems best
for that). emit_ctf is actually called *twice*: once from lang_process
if the emulation suggests that this bfd target does not examine the
symtab or strtab, and once via a bfd callback if it does. (This means
that non-ELF targets still get CTF emitted, even though the late CTF
emission stage is never called for them).
v2: merged with non-ELF support patch: slight commit message
adjustments.
v3: do not spend time merging CTF, or crash, if the CTF section is
explicitly discarded. Do not try to merge or compress CTF unless
linking.
v4: add CTF_COMPRESSION_THRESHOLD. Annul the freed input ctf_file_t's
after writeout: set SEC_IN_MEMORY on the output contents so a future
bfd enhancement knows it could free it. Add SEC_LINKER_CREATED |
SEC_KEEP to avoid having to add .ctf to the linker script. Drop
now-unnecessary ldlang.h-level elf-bfd.h include and hackery around
it. Adapt to elf32.em->elf.em and elf-generic.em->ldelf*.c
changes.

When discovering the statement lists via their header variable
statement_list, file_chain and input_file_chain it can be confusing to
figure out what they are for. They can point to the same initial
statement and the relation between the next field they use is not
obvious from the name.
This commit adds comment for each of those statement list header to
explain what they are for and what next field they use. It also rewrite
the comment for the next fields to simply redirect the reader to the
list header to avoid duplication of documentation.

ld ought to be more clever about where it puts LTO recompiled objects.
Ideally the recompiled objects ought to be ordered to the same place
their IR objects were, and files extracted from archives on the second
pass ought to go in the same place as they would if extracted on the
first pass. This patch addresses the archive problem. Without this
fix, objects extracted from archives might be placed after the crt

Currently the EXCLUDE_FILE linker script construct can only be used
within the input section list, and applied only to the section pattern
immediately following the EXCLUDE_FILE. For example:
*.o (EXCLUDE_FILE (a.o) .text .rodata)
In this case all sections matching '.text' are included from all files
matching '*.o' but not from the file 'a.o'. All sections matching
'.rodata' are also included from all files matching '*.o' (incluing from
'a.o').
If the user wants to restrict the inclusion of section '.rodata' so that
this too is not taken from the file 'a.o' then the above example must be
extended like this:
*.o (EXCLUDE_FILE (a.o) .text EXCLUDE_FILE (a.o) .rodata)
However, due to the internal grammar of the linker script language the
snippet 'EXCLUDE_FILE (a.o) .text' is parsed by a pattern called
'wildcard_spec'. The same 'wildcard_spec' pattern is also used to parse
the input file name snippet '*.o' in the above examples. As a result of
this pattern reuse within the linker script grammar then the following
is also a valid linker script construct:
EXCLUDE_FILE (a.o) *.o (.text .rodata)
However, though the linker accepts this without complaint the
EXCLUDE_FILE part is silently ignored and has no effect.
This commit takes this last example and makes it a useful, valid,
construct. The last example now means to include sections '.text' and
'.rodata' from all files matching '*.o' except for the file 'a.o'.
If the list of input sections is long, and the user knows that the file
exclusion applies across the list then the second form might be a
clearer alternative to replicating the EXCLUDE_FILE construct.
I've added a set of tests for EXCLUDE_FILE to the linker, including
tests for the new functionality.

Add a new command line option '--require-defined' to the linker. This
option operates identically to the '--undefined' option, except that if
the symbol is not defined in the final output file then the linker will
exit with an error.
When making use of --gc-section, or just when trying to pull in parts of
a library, it is not uncommon for a user to use the '--undefined'
command line option to specify a symbol that the user then expects to be
defined by one of the object files supplied to the link.
However, if for any reason the symbol is not satisfied by an object
provided to the link the user will be left with an undefined symbol in
the output file, instead of a defined symbol.
In some cases the above behaviour is what the user wants, in other cases
though we can do better. The '--require-defined' option tries to fill
this gap. The symbol passed to the '--require-defined' option is
treated exactly as if the symbol was passed to '--undefined', however,
before the linker exits a check is made that all symbols passed to
'--require-defined' are actually defined, if any are not then the link
will fail with an error.

LTO output objects have an STT_FILE symbol using the name of the file,
a temporary file. This results in executables that can't be exactly
reproduced, so the file name needs to be dropped. We don't want to
lose all file symbols when linking a mix of lto and non-lto objects as
a file symbol can be used to figure which source file generated a
given local symbol. So lto output objects need to be marked.
I chose to mark lto output objects with a new bfd flag. This flag is
also used to fix a bug in the link-once handling; An object being
loaded after "loading_lto_outputs" is set might be one extracted from
an archive to satisfy new references from lto objects, not an lto
object itself.
The new flag is copied from archive to elements, and the same done
for no_export. This fixes a bug in that --exclude-libs doesn't work
with thin archives. I'm not completely happy with this part of the
patch and may revist this to avoid the hack in
_bfd_look_for_bfd_in_cache.

A long time ago ld made use of userdata to tie an output section to
its lang_input_statement_struct object file. Some time later Joern
made map file printing of symbols at lot faster, using userdata on
input sections. That complicated allocation of userdata, and when the
output section use disappeared a year later, the code wasn't properly
cleaned up. This patch does that cleanup, and also tidies the symbol
printing code to not allocate userdata where it won't be needed. We
don't print symbols defined in the absolute section or in output
sections.
