Summary:
This implements Rui Ueyama's idea in PR39044.
I've checked that ld.bfd and gold do not have the power-of-2 requirement
and do not require sh_entsize to be a multiple of sh_align.
Now on the updated test merge-entsize.s, all the 3 linkers happily
create .rodata that is not 3-byte aligned.
This has a use case in Linux arch/x86/crypto/sha512-avx2-asm.S
It uses sh_entsize of 640, which is not a power of 2.

The Data member of synthetic section's is not valid and empty. The Data
member is required to be valid by ICF as it is used by ICF to determine
the equality of section contents. Therefore, exclude synthetic sections
from ICF.
Fixes bug PR36910.

When looking for the output section and the output offset the
expectation was that the caller had looked at Repl. That works fine
for InputSections, but in the case of MergeInputSections the caller
doesn't have the section that is actually replaced.
The original testcase was failing because getOutputSection was
returning null. The slightly extended testcase also checks that
getOffset also checks Repl.
I will send a refactoring separetelly.
