Stop using SectionKey for creating output sections.
Initially SectionKey was designed because we merged section with
use of Flags and Alignment fields. Currently LLD merges them by name only,
except the case when -relocatable output is produced. In that case
we still merge sections only with the same flags and alignment.
There is probably no issue at all to stop using Flags and Alignment for -r and
just disable the merging in that case.
After doing that change we can get rid of using SectionKey. That is not only
simplifies the code, but also gives some perfomance boost.
I tried to link chrome and mozilla, results are next:
* chrome link time goes from 1,666750355s to 1,551585364s, that is about 7%.
* mozilla time changes from 3,210261947 to 3,153782940, or about 2%.

Currently LLD tries to use information about functions and variables location
taking it from debug sections. When --strip-* is given we discard such sections
and that breaks error reporting.
Patch stops discarding such sections and just removes them from InputSections list.

Now that we have only SymbolBody as the symbol class. So, "SymbolBody"
is a bit strange name now. This is a mechanical change generated by
perl -i -pe s/SymbolBody/Symbol/g $(git grep -l SymbolBody lld/ELF lld/COFF)
nd clang-format-diff.

When findMemoryRegion do search to find a region for output section it
iterates over MemoryRegions which is DenseMap and so does not
guarantee iteration in insertion order. As a result selected region depends
on its name and not on its definition position
Testcase shows the issue, patch fixes it. Behavior after applying the patch
seems consistent with bfd.

Recently we teached LLD to report line numbers for duplicate variables
definitions, though currently LLD is unable to do that for case when
strings are not built in .debug_info, but stored in .debug_str instead.
That is because out LLDDwarfObj does not handle .debug_str yet.
Patch fixes that.

The way we handle ONLY_IF_RO/ONLY_IF_RW constraints in
processSectionCommands is a bit tricky. If input sections
does no satisfy given constraint we remove command from
commands list. It seems too complex, what we can do instead
is to make the OutputCommand empty. So that at later steps
LLD will remove it just like it deal with other empty output commands.
That allows to simplify the loop a bit.

This is PR34826.
Currently LLD is unable to report line number when reporting
duplicate declaration of some variable.
That happens because for extracting line information we always use
.debug_line section content which describes mapping from machine
instructions to source file locations, what does not help for
variables as does not describe them.
In this patch I am taking the approproate information about
variables locations from the .debug_info section.

StringTableSection does not implement postThunkContents, so calling it on these
sections is pointless (it calls an empty virtual function), and we can remove it.

SymbolBody and Symbol were separated classes due to a historical reason.
Symbol used to be a pointer to a SymbolBody, and the relationship
between Symbol and SymbolBody was n:1.
r2681780 changed that. Since that patch, SymbolBody and Symbol are
allocated next to each other to improve memory locality, and they have
1:1 relationship now. So, the separation of Symbol and SymbolBody no
longer makes sense.
This patch merges them into one class. In order to avoid updating too
many places, I chose SymbolBody as a unified name. I'll rename it Symbol
in a follow-up patch.

Summary:
**Problem**
`--exclude-libs` does not work for static libraries affected by the `--whole-archive` option.
**Description**
`--exclude-libs` creates a list of static library paths and does library lookups in this list.
`--whole-archive` splits the static libraries that follow it into separate objects. As a result, lld no longer sees static libraries among linked files and does no `--exclude-libs` lookups.
**Solution**
The proposed solution is to make `--exclude-libs` consider object files too. When lld finds an object file it checks whether this file originates from an archive and, if so, looks the archive up in the `--exclude-libs` list.

When there is no SECTION commands given, all sections are
technically orphans, but now we handle script orphans sections
and regular "orphans" sections for non-scripted case differently,
though we can handle them at one place.

This bit is to manage whether an input section has already been assigned
to some output section by linker scripts or not. So it logically belongs
to InputSectionBase. SectionBase is a common base class for input and
output sections, so that wasn't the right place to define the bit.

edata needs to be set to the end of the last mapped initialized
section. We were previously mishandling the case where there were no
non-mapped sections by setting it to the end of the last section in
the output file.

Because of r314495 which converts DefinedCommon symbols to DefinedRegular

I don't think we have to aim for precise bug compatibility.
We can return a nullptr if a section is consumed by the linker, and
the rest should naturally work.

DSO is short for dynamic shared object, so the function name was a
little confusing because it sounded like it didn't work when we were
a creating statically-linked executable or something.
What we mean by "DSO" here is the current output file that we are
creating. Thus the new name. Alternatively, we could call it the current
ELF module, but "module" is a overloaded word, so I avoided that.
