The ELF spec says:
... if any reference to or definition of a name is a symbol with a
non-default visibility attribute, the visibility attribute must be
propagated to the resolving symbol in the linked object. If different
visibility attributes are specified for distinct references to or
definitions of a symbol, the most constraining visibility attribute
must be propagated to the resolving symbol in the linked object. The
attributes, ordered from least to most constraining, are:
STV_PROTECTED, STV_HIDDEN and STV_INTERNAL.

Now that we print a symbol table and all symbol kinds are at least declared,
we can test all combinations that don't produce an error.
This also includes a few fixes to keep the test passing:
* Keep the strong symbol in a weak X strong pair
* Handle common symbols.
The common X common case will be finished in a followup patch.

This is a direct port of the new PE/COFF linker to ELF.
It can take a single object file and generate a valid executable that executes at the first byte in the text section.
