On MIPS .got section cannot be included into the PT_GNU_RELRO segment.
Sometimes it might work, but in general it is unsupported. One of the
problem is that all sections marked by SHF_MIPS_GPREL should be grouped
together because data in these sections is addressable with a gp
relative address, but such sections might be writable.
This patch exclude mips .got from PT_GNU_RELRO segment and group
SHF_MIPS_GPREL sections.

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.

These MIPS specific symbols should be global because in general they can
have an arbitrary value. By default this value is a fixed offset from .got
section.
This patch adds more checks to the mips-gp-local.s test case but marks
it as XFAIL because LLD does not allow redefinition of absolute symbols
value by a linker script. This should be fixed by D27276.

This simplifies the code by allowing us to remove the visibility argument
to functions that create synthetic symbols.
The only functional change is that the visibility of the MIPS "_gp" symbol
is now hidden. Because this symbol is defined in every executable or DSO, it
would be difficult to observe a visibility change here.

Before this patch sections that go after relro sequence were placed at
the same memory page with relro ones. It caused segmentation fault on
freebsd.
Fixes PR25790.
Patch by George Rimar with some tweaks by myself.
llvm-svn: 256334
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.
