ELF: Simplify handling of *_start/*_end symbols.

We were previously using the (static) addSynthetic function to create
*_start/*_end symbols. This function was doing almost the same thing as
addOptionalSynthetic, except that it would also create the symbol in the
case where it is unreferenced. Because the symbol has hidden visibility,
creating it in that case would have no effect other than adding another
entry to the static symbol table. Remove addSynthetic and change callers to
use addOptionalSynthetic instead.
