The PE/COFF spec says that SizeOfRawData field in the section
header must be a multiple of FileAlignment from the optional
header. LLD emits 512 as FileAlignment, so it must have been
a multiple of 512.
LLD did not follow that. It emitted the actual section size
without the last padding as the SizeOfRawData. Although it's
not correct as per the spec, the Windows loader doesn't seem
to actually bother to check that. Executables created by LLD
worked fine.
However, tools dealing with executalbe files may expect it
to be the correct value, and one instance of it is mt.exe
tool distributed as a part of Windows SDK.
If CMake is invoked with "-E vs_link_exe" option, it silently
run mt.exe to embed a resource file to the resulting file.
And mt.exe sometimes breaks an input file if it's section
header does not follow the standard. That caused a misterous
error that CMake with Ninja occasionally produces a broken
executable.
This patch fixes the section header to make mt.exe and
other tools happy.

If section size is not multiple of 512, the writer added NULL bytes at the end
of it to make it so. That is not required by the PE/COFF spec, and the MSVC's
linker does not do that too. So we don't need to do that, too.

Instead of having multiple SectionChunks for each section (.text, .data,
.rdata and .bss), we could have one chunk writer that can emit any sections.
This patch does that -- removing all section-sepcific chunk writers and
replace them with one "generic" writer.
This change should simplify the code because it eliminates similar-but-
slightly-different classes.
It also fixes an issue in the previous design. Before this patch, we could
emit only limited set of sections (i.e. .text, .data, .rdata and .bss). With
this patch, we can emit any sections.

Disable tests to be run with REQUIRES: disable. Note disable is not added to the
config by the test runner Mkaefiles, so essentially disables the test.
