-M output can be useful when diagnosing an "error: output file too large" problem (emitted in openFile()).
I just ran into such a situation where I had to debug an erronerous
Linux kernel linker script. It tried to create a file larger than
INT64_MAX bytes.
This patch could have helped https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44715 as well.

See `docs/ELF/linker_script.rst` for the new computation for sh_addr and sh_addralign.
`ALIGN(section_align)` now means: "increase alignment to section_align"
(like yet another input section requirement).
The "start of section .foo changes from 0x11 to 0x20" warning no longer
makes sense. Change it to warn if sh_addr%sh_addralign!=0.
To decrease the alignment from the default max_input_align,
use `.output ALIGN(8) : {}` instead of `.output : ALIGN(8) {}`
See linkerscript/section-address-align.test as an example.
When both an output section address and ALIGN are set (can be seen as an
"undefined behavior" https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2020-03/msg00115.html),
lld may align more than GNU ld, but it makes a linker script working
with GNU ld hard to break with lld.
This patch can be considered as restoring part of the behavior before D74736.

Summary:
Places orphan sections into a unique output section. This prevents the merging of orphan sections of the same name.
Matches behaviour of GNU ld --unique. --unique=pattern is not implemented.
Motivated user case shown in the test has 2 local symbols as they would appear if C++ source has been compiled with -ffunction-sections. The merging of these sections in the case of a partial link (-r) may limit the effectiveness of -gc-sections of a subsequent link.

The new behavior matches GNU objdump. A pair of angle brackets makes tests slightly easier.
`.foo:` is not unique and thus cannot be used in a `CHECK-LABEL:` directive.
Without `-LABEL`, the CHECK line can match the `Disassembly of section`

This change not only increases GNU compatibility, it also makes it much easier to read notes.

MC will now output the R_ARM_THM_PC8, R_ARM_THM_PC12 and
R_ARM_THM_PREL_11_0 relocations. These are short-ranged relocations that
are used to implement the adr rd, literal and ldr rd, literal pseudo
instructions.
The instructions use a new RelExpr called R_ARM_PCA in order to calculate
the required S + A - Pa expression, where Pa is AlignDown(P, 4) as the
instructions add their immediate to AlignDown(PC, 4). We also do not want
these relocations to generate or resolve against a PLT entry as the range
of these relocations is so short they would never reach.
The R_ARM_THM_PC8 has a special encoding convention for the relocation
addend, the immediate field is unsigned, yet the addend must be -4 to
account for the Thumb PC bias. The ABI (not the architecture) uses the
convention that the 8-byte immediate of 0xff represents -4.

While the value of the CIE pointer field in a DWARF FDE record is
an offset to the corresponding CIE record from the beginning of
the section, for EH FDE records it is relative to the current offset.
Previously, we did not make that distinction when dumped both kinds
of FDE records and just printed the same value for the CIE pointer
field and the CIE offset; that was acceptable for DWARF FDEs but was
wrong for EH FDEs.

Notations:
* alignExpr: the computed ALIGN value
* max_input_align: the maximum of input section alignments
This patch changes the following two cases to match GNU ld:
* When ALIGN is present, GNU ld sets output sh_addr to alignExpr, while lld use max(alignExpr, max_input_align)
* When addrExpr is specified but alignExpr is not, GNU ld sets output sh_addr to addrExpr, while lld uses `advance(0, max_input_align)`
Note, sh_addralign is still set to max(alignExpr, max_input_align).
lma-align.test is enhanced a bit to check we don't overalign sh_addr.
fixSectionAlignments() sets addrExpr but not alignExpr for the `!hasSectionsCommand` case.
This patch sets alignExpr as well so that max_input_align will be respected.

Summary:
This option causes lld to shuffle sections by assigning different
priorities in each run.
The use case for this is to introduce randomization in benchmarks. The
idea is inspired by the paper "Producing Wrong Data Without Doing
Anything Obviously Wrong!"
(https://www.inf.usi.ch/faculty/hauswirth/publications/asplos09.pdf). Unlike
the paper, we shuffle individual sections, not just input files.
Doing this in lld is particularly convenient as the --reproduce option
makes it easy to collect all the necessary bits for relinking the
program being benchmarked. Once that it is done, all that is needed is
to add --shuffle-sections=0 to the response file and relink before each
run of the benchmark.

Recommit of 0b4a047bfb
(reverted in c29003813a) to incorporate
subsequent fix and add a warning when LLD's interworking behavior has
changed.
D73474 disabled the generation of interworking thunks for branch
relocations to non STT_FUNC symbols. This patch handles the case of BL and
BLX instructions to non STT_FUNC symbols. LLD would normally look at the
state of the caller and the callee and write a BL if the states are the
same and a BLX if the states are different.
This patch disables BL/BLX substitution when the destination symbol does
not have type STT_FUNC. This brings our behavior in line with GNU ld which
may prevent difficult to diagnose runtime errors when switching to lld.
This change does change how LLD handles interworking of symbols that do not
have type STT_FUNC from previous versions including the 10.0 release. This
brings LLD in line with ld.bfd but there may be programs that have not been
linked with ld.bfd that depend on LLD's previous behavior. We emit a warning
when the behavior changes.
A summary of the difference between 10.0 and 11.0 is that for symbols
that do not have a type of STT_FUNC LLD will not change a BL to a BLX or
vice versa. The table below enumerates the changes
| relocation | STT_FUNC | bit(0) | in | 10.0- out | 11.0+ out |
| R_ARM_CALL | no | 1 | BL | BLX | BL |
| R_ARM_CALL | no | 0 | BLX | BL | BLX |
| R_ARM_THM_CALL | no | 1 | BLX | BL | BLX |
