The linker has to create __tls_get_addr, end and _end symbols.
Previously, these symbols were created in createSections().
But they are not actually related to creating output sections.
This patch moves code out of the function.

Previously, this code was directly written in createSections()
function. This patch moves some code out of that function to a
new class.

The number of output sections is usually limited, so the cost
of allocating them is not a bottleneck. This patch simplifies
the code by removing the allocators.

OutputSectionBase already has virtual member functions.
This patch makes addSection() a virtual function to remove code
from Writer::createSections().

This function was longer than 250 lines, which is way too long
in my own standard. This patch reduces the size. It is still
too long, but this patch should be toward the right direction.

There are 3 symbol types that a .bc can provide during lto: defined,
undefined, common.
Defined and undefined symbols have already been refactored. I was
working on common and noticed that absolute symbols would become an
oddity: They would be the only symbol type present in a .o but not in
a.bc.
Looking a bit more, other than the special section number they were only
used for special rules for computing values. In that way they are
similar to TLS, and we don't have a DefinedTLS.
This patch deletes it. With it we have a reasonable rule of the thumb
for having a symbol kind: It exists if it has special resolution
semantics.

Before this patch sections that go after relro sequence were placed at
the same memory page with relro ones. It caused segmentation fault on
freebsd.
Fixes PR25790.
Patch by George Rimar with some tweaks by myself.

I am working on adding LTO support to the new ELF lld.
In order to do that, it will be necessary to represent defined and
undefined symbols that are not from ELF files. One way to do it is to
change the symbol hierarchy to look like
Defined : SymbolBody
Undefined : SymbolBody
DefinedElf<ELFT> : Defined
UndefinedElf<ELFT> : Undefined
Another option would be to use bogus Elf_Sym, but I think that is
getting a bit too hackish.
This patch does the Undefined/UndefinedElf. Split. The next one
will do the Defined/DefinedElf split.

This relocation is similar to R_*_RELATIVE except that the value used in this relocation is the program address returned by the function, which takes no arguments, at the address of
the result of the corresponding R_*_RELATIVE relocation as specified in the processor-specific ABI. The purpose of this relocation to avoid name lookup for locally defined STT_GNU_IFUNC symbols at load-time.

R_386_GOTOFF is calculated as S + A - GOT, where:
S - Represents the value of the symbol whose index resides in the relocation entry.
A - Represents the addend used to compute the value of the relocatable field.
GOT - Represents the address of the global offset table.

MIPS .reginfo section provides information on the registers used by
the code in the object file. Linker should collect this information and
write .reginfo section in the output file. This section contains a union
of used registers masks taken from input .reginfo sections and final
value of the `_gp` symbol.
For details see the "Register Information" section in Chapter 4 in the
following document:
ftp://www.linux-mips.org/pub/linux/mips/doc/ABI/mipsabi.pdf
The patch implements .reginfo sections handling with a couple missed
features: a) it does not put output .reginfo section into the separate
REGINFO segment; b) it does not merge `ri_cprmask` masks from input
section. These features will be implemented later.

@indntpoff is similar to @gotntpoff, but for use in position dependent code. While @gotntpoff resolves to GOT slot address relative to the
start of the GOT in the movl or addl instructions, @indntpoff resolves to the
absolute GOT slot address. ("ELF Handling For Thread-Local Storage", Ulrich Drepper).

Previously, OffsetInBSS is -1 if it has no information about copy
relocation, 0 if it needs a copy relocation, and >0 if its offset
in BSS has been assigned. These flags were too subtle. This patch
adds a new flag, NeedsCopy, to carry information about whether
a shared symbol needs a copy relocation or not.

The function was used only in Writer.cpp and did not depend on SymbolTable.
There is no reason to have that function in SymbolTable.cpp.

Combination of @tlsgd and @gottpoff at the same time leads to miss of R_X86_64_TPOFF64 dynamic relocation. Patch fixes that.
@tlsgd(%rip) - Allocate two contiguous entries in the GOT to hold a tls index
structure (for passing to tls get addr).
@gottpoff(%rip) - Allocate one GOT entry to hold a variable offset in initial TLS
block (relative to TLS block end, %fs:0).
The same situation can be observed for x86 (probably others too, not sure) with corresponding for that target relocations: @tlsgd, @gotntpoff.

Fix was:
uint32_t getLocalTlsIndexVA() { return getVA() + LocalTlsIndexOff; }
=>
uint32_t getLocalTlsIndexVA() { return Base::getVA() + LocalTlsIndexOff; }
Both works for my MSVS.
Original commit message:
[ELF] - Refactor of tls_index implementation for tls local dynamic model.
Patch contains the next 2 changes:
1) static variable Out<ELFT>::LocalModuleTlsIndexOffset moved to Out<ELFT>::Got. At fact there is no meaning for it to be separated from GOT class because at each place of using it anyways needs to call GOT`s getVA(). Also it is impossible to have that offset and not have GOT.
2) addLocalModuleTlsIndex -> addLocalModelTlsIndex (word "Module" changed to "Model"). Not sure was it a mistype or not but I think that update is closer to Urlich terminology.

This patch implements next relocations:
R_386_TLS_LE - Negative offset relative to static TLS (GNU version).
R_386_TLS_LE_32 - Offset relative to static TLS block.
These ones are created when using next code sequences:
* @tpoff - The operator must be used to compute an immediate value. The linker will report
an error if the referenced variable is not defined or it is not code for the executable
itself. No GOT entry is created in this case.
* @ntpoff Calculate the negative offset of the variable it is added to relative to the static TLS block.
The operator must be used to compute an immediate value. The linker will report

In the previous patch (r254003), I made the linker emit PT_GNU_STACK
unconditionally. But sometimes you want to have a control over the
presence of the segment. With this patch, you can omit the segment
by passing -z execstack option.
