MIPS .reginfo section provides information on the registers used by
the code in the object file. Linker should collect this information and
write .reginfo section in the output file. This section contains a union
of used registers masks taken from input .reginfo sections and final
value of the `_gp` symbol.
For details see the "Register Information" section in Chapter 4 in the
following document:
ftp://www.linux-mips.org/pub/linux/mips/doc/ABI/mipsabi.pdf
The patch implements .reginfo sections handling with a couple missed
features: a) it does not put output .reginfo section into the separate
REGINFO segment; b) it does not merge `ri_cprmask` masks from input
section. These features will be implemented later.

@indntpoff is similar to @gotntpoff, but for use in position dependent code. While @gotntpoff resolves to GOT slot address relative to the
start of the GOT in the movl or addl instructions, @indntpoff resolves to the
absolute GOT slot address. ("ELF Handling For Thread-Local Storage", Ulrich Drepper).

The `_gp_disp` is a magic symbol designates offset between start of
function and gp pointer into GOT. Only `R_MIPS_HI16` and `R_MIPS_LO16`
relocations are permitted with `_gp_disp`. The patch adds the `_gp_disp`
as an ignored symbol and adjusts symbol value before call the `relocateOne`
for `R_MIPS_HI16/LO16` relocations.

The `R_MIPS_JALR` is a relocation generated by gcc and gas. This
relocation points to the `jalr` instruction which might be optimized and
converted to the `b` instruction under some conditions.
Now we just ignore this relocation and keep instructions unchanged.

It is reasonable to specify an entry point for shared objects - for

Unlike GNU ld we leave the entry address as 0 if -shared is specified

R_X86_64_SIZE64/R_X86_64_SIZE32 relocations were introduced in 0.98v of "System V Application Binary Interface x86-64" (http://www.x86-64.org/documentation/abi.pdf).
Calculation for them is Z + A, where:
Z - Represents the size of the symbol whose index resides in the relocation entry.
A - Represents the addend used to compute the value of the relocatable field.

Some MIPS relocations including `R_MIPS_HI16/R_MIPS_LO16` use combined
addends. Such addend is calculated using addends of both paired relocations.
Each `R_MIPS_HI16` relocation is paired with the next `R_MIPS_LO16`
relocation. ABI requires to compute such combined addend in case of REL
relocation record format only.
For details see p. 4-17 at
ftp://www.linux-mips.org/pub/linux/mips/doc/ABI/mipsabi.pdf
This patch implements lookup of the next paired relocation suing new
`InputSectionBase::findPairedRelocLocation` method. The primary
disadvantage of this approach is that we put MIPS specific logic into
the common code. The next disadvantage is that we lookup `R_MIPS_LO16`
for each `R_MIPS_HI16` relocation, while in fact multiple `R_MIPS_HI16`
might be paired with the single `R_MIPS_LO16`. From the other side
this way allows us to keep `MipsTargetInfo` class stateless and implement
later relocation handling in parallel.
This patch does not support `R_MIPS_HI16/R_MIPS_LO16` relocations against
`_gp_disp` symbol. In that case the relocations use a special formula for
the calculation. That will be implemented later.

Combination of @tlsgd and @gottpoff at the same time leads to miss of R_X86_64_TPOFF64 dynamic relocation. Patch fixes that.
@tlsgd(%rip) - Allocate two contiguous entries in the GOT to hold a tls index
structure (for passing to tls get addr).
@gottpoff(%rip) - Allocate one GOT entry to hold a variable offset in initial TLS
block (relative to TLS block end, %fs:0).
The same situation can be observed for x86 (probably others too, not sure) with corresponding for that target relocations: @tlsgd, @gotntpoff.

In case a sysroot prefix is configured, and the filename starts with
the '/' character, and the script being processed was located inside
the sysroot prefix, the file's name will be looked for in the sysroot
prefix. Otherwise, the linker falls to the common lookup scheme.
It is slightly modified version of the commit r254031. The problem of
the initial commit was in the `is_absolute` call. On Windows 'C:\' is
absolute path but we do not need to find it under sysroot. In this patch
linker looks up a path under sysroot only if the paths starts with '/'
character.

This patch implements next relocations:
R_386_TLS_LE - Negative offset relative to static TLS (GNU version).
R_386_TLS_LE_32 - Offset relative to static TLS block.
These ones are created when using next code sequences:
* @tpoff - The operator must be used to compute an immediate value. The linker will report
an error if the referenced variable is not defined or it is not code for the executable
itself. No GOT entry is created in this case.
* @ntpoff Calculate the negative offset of the variable it is added to relative to the static TLS block.
The operator must be used to compute an immediate value. The linker will report
an error if the referenced variable is not defined or it is not code for the executable
itself. No GOT entry is created in this case.

by passing -z execstack option.

With this patch, lld creates PT_GNU_STACK segments only when all input
files have .note.GNU-stack sections. This is in line with other linkers
with a minor difference (we don't care about .note.GNU-stack rwx bits as
you can always remove .note.GNU-stack sections instead of setting x bit.)
At least, NetBSD loader does not understand PT_GNU_STACK segments and
reject any executables that have the section. This patch makes lld
compatible with such operating systems.
