The test (the only test that checks getLinkerScriptLocation()) deleted
by r358652 can be restored by replacing R_X86_64_PLT32 with
R_X86_64_PC32, and changing -pie to -shared (preemptable). Then, the
symbol will not be a link-time constant and a -fPIC error will be
issued.

This is https://bugs.llvm.org//show_bug.cgi?id=39857.
I added the comment with much more details to the bug page,
the short version is below.
The following script and code demonstrates the issue:
aliasto__text = __text;
SECTIONS {
.text 0x1000 : { __text = . ; *(.text) }
}
...
call aliasto__text
LLD fails with "cannot refer to absolute symbol: aliasto__text" error.
It happens because at the moment of scanning the relocations
we do not yet assign the correct/final/any section value for the symbol aliasto__text.
I made a change to Relocations.cpp to fix that.
Also, I had to remove the symbol-location.s test case completely, because now it does not
trigger any error. Since now all linker scripts symbols are resolved to constants, no
errors can be triggered at all it seems. I checked that it is consistent with the behavior
of bfd and gold (they do not trigger errors for the case from symbol-location.s), so it should
be OK. I.e. at least it is probably not the best possible, but natural behavior we obtained.

When we report an error for symbols defined in the linker script,
we do not report the location properly.
For example:
ld.lld: error: relocation R_AARCH64_CALL26 cannot refer to absolute symbol: aliasto__text
>>> defined in <internal>
>>> referenced by rtoabs.o:(.text+0x4)
This patch fixes that.
