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

Summary:
This implements Rui Ueyama's idea in PR39044.
I've checked that ld.bfd and gold do not have the power-of-2 requirement
and do not require sh_entsize to be a multiple of sh_align.
Now on the updated test merge-entsize.s, all the 3 linkers happily
create .rodata that is not 3-byte aligned.
This has a use case in Linux arch/x86/crypto/sha512-avx2-asm.S
It uses sh_entsize of 640, which is not a power of 2.

This generalizes the old heuristic placing SHT_DYNSYM SHT_DYNSTR first in the readonly SHF_ALLOC segment.

This CL places .dynsym and .dynstr at the beginning of SHF_ALLOC
sections. We do this to mitigate the possibility that huge .dynsym and
.dynstr sections placed between ro-data and text sections cause
relocation overflow.

This CL is to mitigate R_X86_64_PC32 relocation overflow problems for huge binaries that has near 4G allocated sections.
By examining those binaries, there're 2 issues contributes to the problem:
1). huge ".dynsym" and ".dynstr" stands in the way between .rodata and .text
2). _init_array_start/end are placed at 0 if no ".init_array" presents, this causes .text relocation against them become more prone to overflow.
This CL addresses 1st problem (the 2nd will be addressed in another CL.) by assigning a smaller sortrank to .dynsym and .dynstr thus they no longer stand in between.

Partial (-z relro) and full (-z relro, -z now) relro cases are implemented.
Partial relro:
The ELF sections are reordered so that the ELF internal data sections (.got, .dtors, etc.) precede the program's data sections (.data and .bss).
.got is readonly, .got.plt is still writeable.
Full relro:
Supports all the features of partial RELRO, .got.plt is also readonly.

With this patch, lld creates PT_GNU_STACK segments only when all input
files have .note.GNU-stack sections. This is in line with other linkers
with a minor difference (we don't care about .note.GNU-stack rwx bits as
you can always remove .note.GNU-stack sections instead of setting x bit.)
At least, NetBSD loader does not understand PT_GNU_STACK segments and
reject any executables that have the section. This patch makes lld
compatible with such operating systems.
