This name describes what the variable means slightly better, and the enum with
two values that is only used for this one variable is kind of silly.

All programs in binutils+gdb git repo now support gABI compression
with the SHF_COMPRESSED bit. This patch makes the zlib-gabi option
as compression default for gas, gold, ld and objcopy, instead of the
zlib-gnu option whose outputs are incompatible with gABI.
binutils/
* objcopy.c (copy_file): Set BFD_COMPRESS_GABI if not
zlib-gnu.
* doc/binutils.texi: Change --compress-debug-sections and
--compress-debug-sections=zlib to zlib-gabi.
binutils/testsuite/
* binutils-all/compress.exp: Update.
gas/
* as.c (parse_args): Make --compress-debug-sections and
--compress-debug-sections=zlib the same as
--compress-debug-sections=zlib-gabi.
* doc/as.texinfo: Change --compress-debug-sections and
--compress-debug-sections=zlib to zlib-gabi.
gold/
* compressed_output.cc (Output_compressed_section::set_final_data_size):
Make --compress-debug-sections=zlib the same as
--compress-debug-sections=zlib-gabi.
* testsuite/Makefile.am (flagstest_compress_debug_sections.check):
Expect ".debug_.*" with the SHF_COMPRESSED bit, instead of
".zdebug_".
* testsuite/Makefile.in: Regenerated.
ld/
* emultempl/elf32.em (gld${EMULATION_NAME}_handle_option): Make
--compress-debug-sections=zlib the same as
--compress-debug-sections=zlib-gabi.
* ld.texinfo: Change --compress-debug-sections=zlib to zlib-gabi.
ld/testsuite/

SHF_COMPRESSED bit.

This patch adds the ability to automatically construct a section name
based on the prior section.
When gas is invoked with --sectname-subst, the occurrence of %S in a
section name will be substituted by the name of the current section. For
example:
.macro exception_code
.pushsection %S.exception
[exception code here]
.popsection
.endm
.text
[code]
exception_code
[...]
.section .init
[init code]
exception_code
[...]
The first and second exception_code invocations create the
.text.exception and the .init.exception sections respectively. This is
useful e.g. to discriminate between anciliary sections that are tied to
.init code and can be discarded at run time when initialization is over
vs anciliary sections tied to .text sections that need to stay resident.
* as.c (show_usage): Document --sectname-subst.
(parse_args): Add --sectname-subst.
* as.h (flag_sectname_subst): New.
* config/obj-elf.c (obj_elf_section_name): Add %S substitution.
* doc/as.texinfo: Document it.
This patch adds --compress-debug-sections={none|zlib|zlib-gnu|zlib-gabi}
options to gas and objcopy for ELF files. They control how DWARF debug
sections are compressed. --compress-debug-sections=none is equivalent to
--nocompress-debug-sections. --compress-debug-sections=zlib and
--compress-debug-sections=zlib-gnu are equivalent to
--compress-debug-sections. --compress-debug-sections=zlib-gabi compresses
DWARF debug sections with SHF_COMPRESSED from the ELF ABI. No linker
changes are required to support SHF_COMPRESSED.

This is to fix unitialised memory access when printing listings.
Many targets don't initialise parts of insn frags or data frags that
have fixups, relying on md_apply_fix to finalise the frag. Which is
fine normally, but means we need to run write_object_file after
errors, for listings. Otherwise MALLOC_PERTURB_=1 causes errors like:
x86_64-linux +FAIL: i386 mpx-inval-1
x86_64-linux +FAIL: i386 inval-equ-1
x86_64-linux +FAIL: i386 x86-64-mpx-inval-1
Running write_object_file after errors requires some tweaking to the
testsuite, since we then get extra errors reported from md_apply_fix.
