FreeBSD automatically promotes large, superpage-aligned allocations.

Versions can be assigned to symbols in two different ways.
One is the usual version scripts, and the other is special
symbol suffix '@'. If a symbol contains '@', the string after
that is considered to specify a version name.
Previously, we look for '@' for all symbols.
Anything that works on every symbol can be expensive because
the linker has to handle a lot of symbols. The search for '@'
was not an exception.
In this patch, I made two optimizations.
The first optimization is to handle '@' only when at least one
version is defined. If no versions are defined, no versions can
be assigned to any symbols, so it's waste of time to search for '@'.
The second optimization is to scan only suffixes of symbol names
instead of entire symbol names. Symbol names can be very long, but
symbol versions are usually short, so scanning entire symbol names
is waste of time, too.
There are some error cases which we no longer be able to detect
with this patch. I don't think it's a major drawback because they
are minor errors. Speed is more important.
This change improves LLD with debug info self-link time from
6.6993 seconds to 6.3426 seconds (or -5.3%).

This is PR28358
According to
https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/dsohowto.pdf
"The fourth point, the VERS 1.0 version being referred to in the VERS 2.0 definition, is not really important in symbol versioning. It marks the predecessor relationship of the two versions and it is done to maintain the similar- ities with Solaris’ internal versioning. It does not cause any problem it might in fact be useful to a human reader so predecessors should always be mentioned."
Patch partially reverts 273423 "[ELF] - Implemented version script hierarchies.",
version references are just ignored now.

t is possible to create new version of symbol instead of depricated one
using combination of version script and asm commands. For example:
__asm__(".symver b_1,b@LIBSAMPLE_1.0");
int b_1() { return 10; }
__asm__(".symver b_2,b@@LIBSAMPLE_2.0");
int b_2() { return 20; }
This code makes b_2() to be default implementation for b().
b_1() is used for compatibility with binaries compiled against
library of older version LIBSAMPLE_1.0.
This patch implements support for above functionality in lld.
