For the record, GNU ld changed to 64k max page size in 2014
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=7572ca8989ead4c3425a1500bc241eaaeffa2c89
"[RFC] ld/ARM: Increase maximum page size to 64kB"
Android driver forced 4k page size in AArch64 (D55029) and ARM (D77746).
A binary linked with max-page-size=4096 does not run on a system with a
higher page size configured. There are some systems out there that do
this and it leads to the binary getting `Killed!` by the kernel.
In the non-linker-script cases, when linked with -z noseparate-code
(default), the max-page-size increase should not cause any size
difference. There may be some VMA usage differences, though.

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:

Port the D64906 technique to ARM. It deletes 3 alignments at
PT_LOAD boundaries for the default case: the size of an arm binary
decreases by at most 12kb.

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 ...:"

Given
.weak target
.global _start
_start:
b target
The intention is that the branch goes to the instruction after the
branch, effectively turning it on a nop. The branch adds the runtime
PC, but we were adding it statically too.
I noticed the oddity by inspection, but llvm-objdump seems to agree,
since it now prints things like:
b #-4 <_start+0x4>

The ARM 32 and 64-bit ABI does not use 0 for undefined weak references
that are used in PC relative relocations. In particular:
- A branch relocation to an undefined weak resolves to the next
instruction. Effectively making the branch a no-op
- In all other cases the symbol resolves to the place so that S + A - P
resolves to A.

An undefined weak reference is given an address of 0 this will
incorrectly trigger the creation of a Thumb to ARM interworking Thunk
if there is a Thumb branch instruction to the symbol. This results in
an error as Thunks only make sense to defined or shared symbols.
We prevent this by detecting an undefined symbol and not creating a thunk
for it.
