_gp points to a position in the file, so it is not really absolute. It
is also simpler to not force it to be absolute, so if there is no
strong ABI requirement we should not do it.

On MIPS .got section cannot be included into the PT_GNU_RELRO segment.
Sometimes it might work, but in general it is unsupported. One of the
problem is that all sections marked by SHF_MIPS_GPREL should be grouped
together because data in these sections is addressable with a gp
relative address, but such sections might be writable.
This patch exclude mips .got from PT_GNU_RELRO segment and group
SHF_MIPS_GPREL sections.

These MIPS specific symbols should be global because in general they can
have an arbitrary value. By default this value is a fixed offset from .got
section.
This patch adds more checks to the mips-gp-local.s test case but marks
it as XFAIL because LLD does not allow redefinition of absolute symbols
value by a linker script. This should be fixed by D27276.

MIPS N64 ABI packs multiple relocations into the single relocation
record. In general, all up to three relocations can have arbitrary types.
In fact, Clang and GCC uses only a few combinations. For now, we support
two of them. That is allow to pass at least all LLVM test suite cases.
<any relocation> / R_MIPS_SUB / R_MIPS_HI16 | R_MIPS_LO16
<any relocation> / R_MIPS_64 / R_MIPS_NONE
The first relocation is a 'real' relocation which is calculated using
the corresponding symbol's value. The second and the third relocations
used to modify result of the first one: extend it to 64-bit, extract
high or low part etc. For details, see part 2.9 'Relocation' at
