If section size is not multiple of 512, the writer added NULL bytes at the end
of it to make it so. That is not required by the PE/COFF spec, and the MSVC's
linker does not do that too. So we don't need to do that, too.

Instead of having multiple SectionChunks for each section (.text, .data,
.rdata and .bss), we could have one chunk writer that can emit any sections.
This patch does that -- removing all section-sepcific chunk writers and
replace them with one "generic" writer.
This change should simplify the code because it eliminates similar-but-
slightly-different classes.
It also fixes an issue in the previous design. Before this patch, we could
emit only limited set of sections (i.e. .text, .data, .rdata and .bss). With
this patch, we can emit any sections.

If /subsystem option is not specified, the linker needs to infer it from the
entry point function. If "main" or "wmain" is defined, it's a console
application. If "WinMain" or "wWinMain" is defined, it's a GUI application.

With this patch the entry symbol is treated as an undefined symbol, to force
the resolver to resolve the entry symbol.

Emit .reloc section. This is the first step to support DLL creation. The
executable doesn't need .reloc section, but the DLL does.

Summary:
COFFReference class is defined to represent relocation information for
COFFDefinedAtom, as ELFReference for ELFDefinedAtom. ReaderCOFF can now
read relocation entries and create COFFReferences accordingly.
I need to make WriterPECOFF to handle the relocation references created by
the reader, but this patch is already big, so I think it's probably better
to get it reviewed now.
