Previously the description allowed to describe symbols with use of
`Name` and `Index` keys. This patch removes them and now it is still
possible to use either names or symbol indexes, but the code is simpler
and the format is slightly different.
Such a change will be useful for another patches, e.g:

The encoded sequence of Elf*_Relr entries in a SHT_RELR section looks
like [ AAAAAAAA BBBBBBB1 BBBBBBB1 ... AAAAAAAA BBBBBB1 ... ]
i.e. start with an address, followed by any number of bitmaps. The address

Currently we have the `Flags` property that allows to
set flags for a section. The problem is that it does not
allow us to set an arbitrary value, because of bit fields
validation under the hood. An arbitrary values can be used

We probably do not want to relax the validation, so this

override the `sh_size`. It is inline with others `Sh*` properties

Currently there is no way to describe the data that is not a part of an output section.
It can be a data used to align sections or to fill the gaps with something,
or another kind of custom data. In this patch I suggest a way to describe it. It looks like that:
```
Sections:
- Type: CustomFiller
Pattern: "CCDD"
Size: 4
- Name: .bar
Type: SHT_PROGBITS
Content: "FF"
```
I.e. I've added a kind of synthetic section with a synthetic type "CustomFiller".
In the code it is called a "SyntheticFiller", which is "a synthetic section which
might be used to write the custom data around regular output sections. It does
not present in the sections header table, but it might affect the output file size and
program headers produced. Think about it as about piece of data."
`SyntheticFiller` currently has a `Pattern` field and a `Size` field + an optional `Name`.
When written, `Size` of bytes in the output will be filled with a `Pattern`.
It is possible to reference a named filler it by name from the program headers description,
just like any other normal section.

SHT_NOTE is the section that consists of

This patch implements the section how it is described here:
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/819-0690/chapter6-18048.html
Which says: "For 64–bit objects and 32–bit objects, each entry is an array of 4-byte words in
the format of the target processor"
The official specification is different
http://www.sco.com/developers/gabi/latest/ch5.pheader.html#note_section
And says: "n 64-bit objects (files with e_ident[EI_CLASS] equal to ELFCLASS64), each entry is an array
of 8-byte words in the format of the target processor. In 32-bit objects (files with e_ident[EI_CLASS]
equal to ELFCLASS32), each entry is an array of 4-byte words in the format of the target processor"
Since LLVM uses the first, 32-bit way, this patch follows it.

Currenly we can encode the 'st_other' field of symbol using 3 fields.
'Visibility' is used to encode STV_* values.
'Other' is used to encode everything except the visibility, but it can't handle arbitrary values.
'StOther' is used to encode arbitrary values when 'Visibility'/'Other' are not helpfull enough.
'st_other' field is used to encode symbol visibility and platform-dependent
flags and values. Problem to encode it is that it consists of Visibility part (STV_* values)
which are enumeration values and the Other part, which is different and inconsistent.
For MIPS the Other part contains flags for all STO_MIPS_* values except STO_MIPS_MIPS16.
(Like comment in ELFDumper says: "Someones in their infinite wisdom decided to make
STO_MIPS_MIPS16 flag overlapped with other ST_MIPS_xxx flags."...)
And for PPC64 the Other part might actually encode any value.
This patch implements custom logic for handling the st_other and removes
'Visibility' and 'StOther' fields.
Here is an example of a new YAML style this patch allows:
- Name: foo
Other: [ 0x4 ]
- Name: bar
Other: [ STV_PROTECTED, 4 ]
- Name: zed
Other: [ STV_PROTECTED, STO_MIPS_OPTIONAL, 0xf8 ]

This is a follow up discussed in the comments of D66583.
Currently, if for example, we have both StOther and Other set in YAML document for a symbol,
then yaml2obj reports an "unknown key 'Other'" error.
It happens because 'mapOptional()' is never called for 'Other/Visibility' in this case,
leaving those unhandled.
This message does not describe the reason of the error well. This patch fixes it.

st_other field of a symbol usually contains its visibility.
Other bits are usually 0, though some targets, like
MIPS can set them using the named bit field values.
Problem is that there is no way to set an arbitrary value now,
though that might be useful for our test cases.
In this patch I introduced a way to set st_other to any numeric
value using the new StOther field.

In some cases a symbol might have section index == SHN_XINDEX.
This is an escape value indicating that the actual section header index
is too large to fit in the containing field.
Then the SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX section is used. It contains the 32bit values
that stores section indexes.
ELF gABI says that there can be multiple SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX sections,
i.e. for example one for .symtab and one for .dynsym
(1) https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/generic-abi/-XJAV5d8PRg
(2) DT_SYMTAB_SHNDX: http://www.sco.com/developers/gabi/latest/ch5.dynamic.html
In this patch I am only supporting a single SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX associated
with a .symtab. This is a more or less common case which is used a few tests I saw in LLVM.
I decided not to create the SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX section as "implicit",
but implement is like a kind of regular section for now.
i.e. tools do not recreate this section or its content, like they do for
symbol table sections, for example. That should allow to write all kind of
possible broken test cases for our needs and keep the output closer to requested.

Summary:
The directive defines a symbol as an group/local memory (LDS) symbol.
LDS symbols behave similar to common symbols for the purposes of ELF,
using the processor-specific SHN_AMDGPU_LDS as section index.
It is the linker and/or runtime loader's job to "instantiate" LDS symbols
and resolve relocations that reference them.
It is not possible to initialize LDS memory (not even zero-initialize
as for .bss).
We want to be able to link together objects -- starting with relocatable
objects, but possible expanding to shared objects in the future -- that
access LDS memory in a flexible way.
LDS memory is in an address space that is entirely separate from the
address space that contains the program image (code and normal data),
so having program segments for it doesn't really make sense.
Furthermore, we want to be able to compile multiple kernels in a
compilation unit which have disjoint use of LDS memory. In that case,
we may want to place LDS symbols differently for different kernels
to save memory (LDS memory is very limited and physically private to
each kernel invocation), so we can't simply place LDS symbols in a
.lds section.
Hence this solution where LDS symbols always stay undefined.
