The fix for PR 19291 broke some other cases where -r is used with scripts,
as reported in PR 22266. The original fix for PR 22266 ended up breaking
many cases for REL targets, where the addends are stored in the section data,
and are not being adjusted properly.
The problem was basically that in a relocatable output file (ET_REL),
symbol values are supposed to be relative to the start address of their
section. Usually in a relocatable file, all sections start at 0, so the
failure to get this right is often irrelevant, but with a linker script,
we occasionally see an output section whose starting address is not 0,
and gold would occasionally write a symbol with its relocated value instead
of its section-relative value.
This patch reverts the recent fix for PR 22266 as well as my original fix
for PR 19291. The original fix moved the symbol value adjustment to
write_local_symbols, but neglected to undo a few places where the adjustment
was also being applied, resulting in an occasional double adjustment. The
more recent fix removed those other adjustments, but then failed to
re-account for the adjustment when rewriting the relocations on REL targets.
With the old attempts reverted, we now apply the symbol value adjustment to
the one case that had been missed (non-section symbols in merge sections).
But now we also need to account for the adjustment when rewriting the addends
for RELA relocations.

The fix committed for PR gold/19291 ended up breaking other cases. The
commit added adjustment code to write_local_symbols, but in many cases
compute_final_local_value_internal had already subtracted the output
section's address. To fix this, all other adjustments are now removed, so
only the one in write_local_symbols is left.
