H.J. Lu c3a1714ce7 plugin: Use LDPT_ADD_SYMBOLS_V2 to get symbol type
Since LTO plugin may generate more than one ltrans.o file from one input
IR object as LTO wrapper ignores -flto-partition=none:

lto-wrapper.c:608:

   604          /* Drop arguments that we want to take from the link line.  */
   605          case OPT_flto_:
   606          case OPT_flto:
   607          case OPT_flto_partition_:
   608            continue;

the LTO wrapper approach is not only slow but also unreliable.  Since
the LTO plugin API has been extended to add LDPT_ADD_SYMBOLS_V2 with
symbol type and section kind, we can use LDPT_ADD_SYMBOLS_V2 to get
symbol type, instead of invoking the LTO wrapper.

	PR binutils/25640
	* plugin.c (plugin_list_entry): Add has_symbol_type.
	(add_symbols_v2): New function.
	(bfd_plugin_open_input): Don't invoke LTO wrapper if LTO plugin
	provides symbol type.
	(try_load_plugin): Add LDPT_ADD_SYMBOLS_V2.
	(bfd_plugin_canonicalize_symtab): Use LTO plugin symbol type if
	available.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
