Also change some options that have different semantics (cause confusion) in llvm-readelf mode:
-s => -S
-t => --symbols
-sd => --section-data

Initially LLD generates Elf_Rel relocations for O32 ABI and Elf_Rela
relocations for N32 / N64 ABIs. In other words, format of input and
output relocations was always the same. Now LLD generates all output
relocations using Elf_Rel format only. It conforms to ABIs requirement.
The patch suggested by Alexander Richardson.

This is in preparation for my next change, which will introduce a relro
nobits section. That requires that relro sections appear at the end of the
progbits part of the r/w segment so that the relro nobits section can appear
contiguously.
Because of the amount of churn required in the test suite, I'm making this
change separately.

The Elf_Rela has an explicit addend. It doesn't need the addend to be
written to the section being relocated.
Since relative relocations are very common in the output, this is a
noticeable speedup. The results I got were

This is the option which sorts relocs to optimize dynamic linker performance.
-z combelocs is the default in gold, also it ignores -z nocombreloc,
this patch do the same.
Patch sorts relocations by symbols only and do not create any
DT_REL[A]COUNT entries. That is different with what gold/bfd do.
More information about option is here:

MIPS N64 ABI packs multiple relocations into the single relocation
record. Particularly it requires to represent dynamic relative
relocation as a combination of R_MIPS_REL32 and R_MIPS_64 relocations.
