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.

We were ignoring the addend if the piece was dead. I don't expect this
to make a difference in any real world situations, but it is simpler
anyway.
