In particular we use these in two places:
1. When building PIC code we no longer need to combine output segments
into a single segment that can be initialized at `__memory_base`.
Instead each segment can encode its offset from `__memory_base` in
its initializer. e.g.
```
(i32.add (global.get __memory_base) (i32.const offset)
```
2. When building PIC code we no longer need to relocation internalized
global addresses. We can just initialize them with their correct
offsets.

This is a new mode for handling unresolved symbols that allows all
symbols to be imported in the same that they would be in the case of
`-fpie` or `-shared`, but generting an otherwise fixed/non-relocatable
binary.
Code linked in this way should still be compiled with `-fPIC` so that
data symbols can be resolved via imports.
This essentially allows the building of static binaries that have
dynamic imports. See:

As with other uses of the experimental dynamic linking ABI, this
behaviour will produce a warning unless run with `--experimental-pic`.

All references to interposable symbols can be redirected at runtime to
point to a different symbol definition (with the same name). For
example, if both dylib A and B define symbol _foo, and we load A before
B at runtime, then all references to _foo within dylib B will point to
the definition in dylib A.
ld64 makes all extern symbols interposable when linking with
`-flat_namespace`.

just be a matter of parsing those CLI flags and setting the

In GCC -fgnu-unique output, STB_GNU_UNIQUE symbols are always defined relative

Previously, we aligned every cstring to 16 bytes as a temporary hack to
deal with https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/50135. However, it
was highly wasteful in terms of binary size.
To recap, in contrast to ELF, which puts strings that need different
alignments into different sections, `clang`'s Mach-O backend puts them
all in one section. Strings that need to be aligned have the .p2align
directive emitted before them, which simply translates into zero padding
in the object file. In other words, we have to infer the alignment of
the cstrings from their addresses.
We differ slightly from ld64 in how we've chosen to align these
cstrings. Both LLD and ld64 preserve the number of trailing zeros in
each cstring's address in the input object files. When deduplicating
identical cstrings, both linkers pick the cstring whose address has more
trailing zeros, and preserve the alignment of that address in the final
binary. However, ld64 goes a step further and also preserves the offset
of the cstring from the last section-aligned address. I.e. if a cstring
is at offset 18 in the input, with a section alignment of 16, then both
LLD and ld64 will ensure the final address is 2-byte aligned (since
`18 == 16 + 2`). But ld64 will also ensure that the final address is of
the form 16 * k + 2 for some k (which implies 2-byte alignment).
Note that ld64's heuristic means that a dedup'ed cstring's final address is
dependent on the order of the input object files. E.g. if in addition to the
cstring at offset 18 above, we have a duplicate one in another file with a
`.cstring` section alignment of 2 and an offset of zero, then ld64 will pick
the cstring from the object file earlier on the command line (since both have
the same number of trailing zeros in their address). So the final cstring may
either be at some address `16 * k + 2` or at some address `2 * k`.
I've opted not to follow this behavior primarily for implementation
simplicity, and secondarily to save a few more bytes. It's not clear to me
that preserving the section alignment + offset is ever necessary, and there
are many cases that are clearly redundant. In particular, if an x86_64 object
file contains some strings that are accessed via SIMD instructions, then the
.cstring section in the object file will be 16-byte-aligned (since SIMD
requires its operand addresses to be 16-byte aligned). However, there will
typically also be other cstrings in the same file that aren't used via SIMD
and don't need this alignment. They will be emitted at some arbitrary address
`A`, but ld64 will treat them as being 16-byte aligned with an offset of
`16 % A`.
I have verified that the two repros in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/50135
work well with the new alignment behavior.

ld64 breaks down `__objc_classrefs` on a per-word level and deduplicates
them. This greatly reduces the number of bind entries emitted (and
therefore the amount of work `dyld` has to do at runtime). For

`__cfstring` has embedded addends that foil ICF's hashing / equality
checks. (We can ignore embedded addends when doing ICF because the same
information gets recorded in our Reloc structs.) Therefore, in order to
properly dedup CFStrings, we create a mutable copy of the CFString and
zero out the embedded addends before performing any hashing / equality
checks.
(We did in fact have a partial implementation of CFString deduplication
already. However, it only worked when the cstrings they point to are at
identical offsets in their object files.)
I anticipate this approach can be extended to other similar
statically-allocated struct sections in the future.
In addition, we previously treated all references with differing addends
as unequal. This is not true when the references are to literals:
different addends may point to the same literal in the output binary. In
particular, `__cfstring` has such references to `__cstring`. I've
adjusted ICF's `equalsConstant` logic accordingly, and I've added a few
more tests to make sure the addend-comparison code path is adequately
covered.

So far, we sort all discardable sections at the end, with only some
extra logic to make sure that the .reloc section is at the start

sections, other than .reloc, they must also be ordered before
.debug_* sections, to avoid leaving gaps if the executable is
stripped.
(Stripping executables doesn't remove all discardable sections,
only the ones named .debug_*).
Rust binaries seem to include a .rmeta section, which is marked

In GNU ld, the definition precedence is: regular symbol assignment > relocatable object definition > `PROVIDE` symbol assignment.
GNU ld's internal linker scripts define the non-reserved (by C and C++)
edata/end/etext with `PROVIDE` so the relocatable object definition takes
precedence. This makes sense because `int end;` is valid.
We currently redefine such symbols if they are COMMON, but not if they are
regular definitions, so `int end;` with -fcommon is essentially a UB in ld.lld.
Fix this (also improve consistency and match GNU ld) by using the
`isDefined` code path for `isCommon`. In GNU ld, reserved identifiers like
`__ehdr_start` do not use `PROVIDE`, while we treat them all as `PROVIDE`, this
seems fine.
