GNU as does not sort local symbols. This has several advantages:
* The .symtab order is roughly the symbol occurrence order.
* The closest preceding STT_SECTION symbol is the definition of a local symbol.
* The closest preceding STT_FILE symbol is the defining file of a local symbol, if there are multiple default-version .file directives. (Not implemented in MC.)
This fixes several issues. The behavior changes are:
A SHN_COMMON symbol does not have the 'g' flag.
An undefined symbol does not have 'g' or 'l' flag.
A STB_GLOBAL SymbolRef::ST_Unknown symbol has the 'g' flag.
A STB_LOCAL SymbolRef::ST_Unknown symbol has the 'l' flag.

Before this patch, when you objdump an LLVM-compiled file, objdump tried to
decode data-in-code sections as if they were code. This patch adds the missing
Mapping Symbols, as defined by "ELF for the ARM Architecture" (ARM IHI 0044D).
Patch based on work by Greg Fitzgerald.
