When a user object overrides a versioned definition in a shared object,
it's possible to trigger an internal error because the versioned

was introduced by the fix for PR 18703. This patch fixes the problem
by reordering the tests so that we do not check ret->is_default()

A symbol value in an ELF final linked binary is absolute, in contrast

If a symbol is defined with ".symver foo,foo@VER", the assembler
creates two symbols in the object: one unversioned, and one with
the (non-default) version "VER". If foo is listed in a version
script, gold would then make the first of those symbols the
default version, and would ignore the second symbol as a
duplicate, without making it a non-default version. While this is
arguably reasonable behavior, it doesn't match Gnu ld behavior,
so this patch fixes that by allowing the second definition to
override the first by resetting the "default version" indication.
Several test cases from the Gnu ld testsuite also exposed another
related problem, where a symbol defined with ".symver foo,foo@",
placed into a shared library, is not handled properly by gold.
This patch also fixes that case, binding the symbol to the base
version.

The psABI (AAELF) says this about mapping symbols:
4.6.5.1 Section-relative mapping symbols
Mapping symbols defined in a section define a sequence of
half-open address intervals that cover the address range of the
section. Each interval starts at the address defined by the
mapping symbol, and continues up to, but not including, the
address defined by the next (in address order) mapping symbol or
the end of the section. A section must have a mapping symbol
defined at the beginning of the section; however, if the section
contains only data then the mapping symbol may be omitted.
That makes it pretty clear that, in the absence of a mapping symbol,
the entire section can be treated as data.

The gABI allows STT_COMMON symbols to appear in executables and shared
objects, so that the dynamic loader can resolve commons across modules.
When reading a shared object, however, an STT_COMMON symbol should be
treated as a regular definition at link time.
In a relocatable object, the gABI requires that any STT_COMMON symbols
must also be defined in the special SHN_COMMON section (which we extend
to include target-specific small and large common sections). Thus,
there is no need for gold to treat STT_COMMON symbols as common unless
the st_shndx field is also set to a common section.

Gold undercounts the number of program headers it's going to add when
initially evaluating the SIZEOF_HEADERS expression. As a result, scripts
that use it end up skipping a page unnecessarily when the starting address
is too low. The undercounting is because it doesn't count the PT_INTERP
segment.
Then, when finalizing symbols, gold overcounts the program headers: all
segments have already been created, but we still count the headers we
expected to add from the script.
This patch fixes both problems.

.bar sections, whereas in the first case, it should collect all
.foo and .bar sections in the order seen.
If you add sort specs, the Gnu linker has some bizarre corner
cases that I do not try to replicate. In particular,
"*(SORT_BY_NAME(.foo) SORT_BY_NAME(.bar))" does the same thing
as "*(.foo) *(.bar)". But if you apply a sort spec
to just one of several patterns, say, "*(SORT_BY_NAME(.foo) .bar)",
the Gnu linker will collect any .bar section it sees before the
first .foo, then all .foo sections, then all remaining .bar
sections. With this patch, if any of the input patterns have a
sort spec, gold will group them all as it did before; e.g.,
all .foo sections followed by all .bar sections.
