Besides -Bdynamic and -Bstatic, ld documents additional aliases for both of these options. Instead of -Bstatic, one may write -dn, -non_shared or -static. Instead of -Bdynamic one may write -dy or -call_shared. Source: https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs-2.36/ld/Options.html
This patch adds those aliases to the MinGW driver of lld for the sake of ld compatibility.
Encountered this case while compiling a static Qt 6.1 distribution and got build failures as -static was passed directly to the linker, instead of through the compiler driver.

D62727 removed GotEntrySize and GotPltEntrySize with a comment that they

word size of 4, but needs 8-byte GOT entries. This restores gotEntrySize

This fixes a bug with string merging with string symbols that contain
NULLs, as is the case in the `merge-string.s` test.
The bug only showed when we run with `--relocatable` and then try read
the resulting object back in. In this case we would end up with string
symbols that extend past the end of the segment in which they live.
The problem comes from the fact that sections which are flagged as
string mergable assume that all strings are NULL terminated. The
merging algorithm will drop trailing chars that follow a NULL since they
are essentially unreachable. However, the "size" attribute (in the
symbol table) of such a truncated symbol is not updated resulting a
symbol size that can overlap the end of the segment.
I verified that this can happen in ELF too given the right conditions
and the its harmless enough. In practice Strings that contain embedded
null should not be part of a mergable section.

Extend the range of calls beyond an architecture's limited branch range by first calling a thunk, which loads the far address into a scratch register (x16 on ARM64) and branches through it.
Other ports (COFF, ELF) use multiple passes with successively-refined guesses regarding the expansion of text-space imposed by thunk-space overhead. This MachO algorithm places thunks during MergedOutputSection::finalize() in a single pass using exact thunk-space overheads. Thunks are kept in a separate vector to avoid the overhead of inserting into the `inputs` vector of `MergedOutputSection`.

* arm64-stubs.s test is broken

We have this extra step in wasm-ld that doesn't exist in other lld
backend which verifies the existing contents of the relocation targets.
This was originally intended as an extra form of double checking and an
aid to compiler developers. However it has always been somewhat
controversial and there have been suggestions in the past the we simply
remove it.
My motivation for removing it now is that its causing me a headache
when trying to fix an issue with negative addends. In the case of
negative addends that final result can be wrapped/negative but this
checking code would require significant modification to be able to deal
with that case. For example with some test cases I'm looking at I'm
seeing error like this:
```
wasm-ld: warning: /usr/local/google/home/sbc/dev/wasm/llvm-build/tools/lld/test/wasm/Output/merge-string.s.tmp.o:(.rodata_relocs): unexpected existing value for R_WASM_MEMORY_ADDR_I32: existing=FFFFFFFA expected=FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFA
```
Rather than try to refactor `calcExpectedValue` to somehow return two
different types of results (32 and 64-bit) depending on the relocation
type, I think we can just remove this code.

Currently, when reporting unresolved symbols in shared libraries, if an
undefined symbol is firstly seen in a regular object file that shadows
the reference for the same symbol in a shared object. As a result, the
error for the unresolved symbol in the shared library is not reported.
If referencing sections in regular object files are discarded because of
'--gc-sections', no reports about such symbols are generated, and the
linker finishes successfully, generating an output image that fails on
the run.
The patch fixes the issue by keeping symbols, which should be checked,
for each shared library separately.

Implementation-wise, when merging two weak symbols, this sets a
"canOmitFromOutput" on the InputSection belonging to the weak symbol not put in
the symbol table. We then don't write InputSections that have this set, as long
as they are not referenced from other symbols. (This happens e.g. for object
files that don't set .subsections_via_symbols or that use .alt_entry.)
Some restrictions:
- not yet done for bitcode inputs
- no "comdat" handling (`kindNoneGroupSubordinate*` in ld64) --
Frame Descriptor Entries (FDEs), Language Specific Data Areas (LSDAs)
(that is, catch block unwind information) and Personality Routines
associated with weak functions still not stripped. This is wasteful,
but harmless.
- However, this does strip weaks from __unwind_info (which is needed for
correctness and not just for size)
- This nopes out on InputSections that are referenced form more than
one symbol (eg from .alt_entry) for now
Things that work based on symbols Just Work:
- map files (change in MapFile.cpp is no-op and not needed; I just
found it a bit more explicit)
- exports
Things that work with inputSections need to explicitly check if
an inputSection is written (e.g. unwind info).
This patch is useful in itself, but it's also likely also a useful foundation
for dead_strip.
I used to have a "canoncialRepresentative" pointer on InputSection instead of
just the bool, which would be handy for ICF too. But I ended up not needing it
for this patch, so I removed that again for now.

When running in relocatable mode any input data segments that are part
of a comdat group should not be merged with other segments of the same
name. This is because the final linker needs to keep the separate so
they can be included/excluded individually.
Often this is not a problem since normally only one section with a given
name `foo` ends up in the output object file. However, the problem
occurs when one input contains `foo` which part of a comdat and another
object contains a local symbol `foo` we were attempting to merge them.
This behaviour matches (I believe) that of the ELF linker. See
`LinkerScript.cpp:addInputSec`.
