This essentially drops the change by r288021 (discussed with Georgii Rymar
and Peter Smith and noted down in the release note of lld 10).
GNU ld>=2.31 enables -z separate-code by default for Linux x86. By
default (in the absence of a PHDRS command) a readonly PT_LOAD is
created, which is different from its traditional behavior.
Not emulating GNU ld's traditional behavior is good for us because it
improves code consistency (we create a readonly PT_LOAD in the absence
of a SECTIONS command).
Users can add --no-rosegment to restore the previous behavior (combined
readonly and read-executable sections in a single RX PT_LOAD).
The new behavior matches GNU objdump. A pair of angle brackets makes tests slightly easier.
`.foo:` is not unique and thus cannot be used in a `CHECK-LABEL:` directive.
Without `-LABEL`, the CHECK line can match the `Disassembly of section`
line and causes the next `CHECK-NEXT:` to fail.
```
Disassembly of section .foo:
0000000000001634 .foo:
```
Bdragon: <> has metalinguistic connotation. it just "feels right"

This improves readability and the behavior is consistent with GNU objdump.
The new test test/tools/llvm-objdump/X86/disassemble-section-name.s
checks we print newlines before and after "Disassembly of section ...:"

Older Arm architectures do not support the MOVT and MOVW instructions so we
must use an alternative sequence of instructions to transfer control to the
destination.
Assuming at least Armv5 this patch adds support for Thunks that load or add
to the program counter. Note that there are no Armv5 Thumb Thunks as there
is no Thumb branch instruction in Armv5 that supports Thunks. These thunks
will not work for Armv4t (arm7tdmi) as this architecture cannot change state
from using the LDR or ADD instruction.

This change adds initial support for range extension thunks. All thunks must
be created within the first pass so some corner cases are not supported. A
follow up patch will add support for multiple passes.
With this change the existing tests arm-branch-error.s and
arm-thumb-branch-error.s now no longer fail with an out of range branch.
These have been renamed and tests added for the range extension thunk.
