Copy relocations are relocations to copy data from DSOs to
executable's .bss segment at runtime. It doesn't make sense to
create such relocations for zero-sized symbols.
GNU linkers don't agree with each other. ld rejects such
relocation/symbol pair. gold don't reject that but do not create
copy relocations as well. I took the former approach because
I don't think the latter is what user wants.

The patch adds lazy relocation support for MIPS and R_MIPS_26 relocation
handing.
R_MIPS_26 relocation might require PLT entry creation. In that case it
is fully supported by the patch. But if the relocation target is a local
symbol we need to use a different expression to calculate the relocation
result. This case is not implemented yet because there is no method to
get know the kind of relocation target in the `relocateOne` routine.
