Fangrui Song b159906a9a [test] Change llvm-readobj -long-option to --long-option or well-known short options. NFC
Also change some options that have different semantics (cause confusion) in llvm-readelf mode:

-s => -S
-t => --symbols
-sd => --section-data

Fangrui Song 07f8daf05e [ELF] Simplify RelRo, TLS, NOBITS section ranks and make RW PT_LOAD start with RelRo
Old: PT_LOAD(.data | PT_GNU_RELRO(.data.rel.ro .bss.rel.ro) | .bss)
New: PT_LOAD(PT_GNU_RELRO(.data.rel.ro .bss.rel.ro) | .data .bss)

The placement of | indicates page alignment caused by PT_GNU_RELRO. The
new layout has simpler rules and saves space for many cases.

Old size: roundup(.data) + roundup(.data.rel.ro)
New size: roundup(.data.rel.ro + .bss.rel.ro) + .data

Other advantages:

* At runtime the 3 memory mappings decrease to 2.
* start(PT_TLS) = start(PT_GNU_RELRO) = start(RW PT_LOAD). This
  simplifies binary manipulation tools.
  GNU strip before 2.31 discards PT_GNU_RELRO if its
  address is not equal to the start of its associated PT_LOAD.
  This has been fixed by https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;h=f2731e0c374e5323ce4cdae2bcc7b7fe22da1a6f
  But with this change, we will be compatible with GNU strip before 2.31
* Before, .got.plt (non-relro by default) was placed before .got (relro
  by default), which made it impossible to have _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_
  (start of .got.plt on x86-64) equal to the end of .got (R_GOT*_FROM_END)
  (https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36555). With the new ordering, we
  can improve on this regard if we'd like to.

George Rimar d46753e421 [ELF] - Do --hash-style=both by default.
Its PR34712,

GNU linkers recently changed default values to "both" of "sysv".
Patch do the same for all targets except MIPS, where .gnu.hash
section is not yet supported.

Code suggested by Rui Ueyama.

Peter Collingbourne 628ec9f193 ELF: Place relro sections after non-relro sections in r/w segment.
This is in preparation for my next change, which will introduce a relro
nobits section. That requires that relro sections appear at the end of the
progbits part of the r/w segment so that the relro nobits section can appear
contiguously.

Because of the amount of churn required in the test suite, I'm making this
change separately.

Peter Smith fde6213fe8 [ARM] ARM TLS shouldn't use relaxations
The ARM TLS relocations are placed on literal data and not the 
code-sequence, it is therefore not possible to implement the relaxTls* 
functions. This change updates handleMipsTlsRelocation() to
handleNoRelaxTlsRelocation() and incorporates ARM as well as Mips.

The ARM support in handleNoRelaxTlsRelocation() currently needs to ouput
the module index dynamic relocation in all cases as it is relying on the 
dynamic linker to set the module index in the got.

Should address PR30218
