With OutputSection being a virtual interface, each concrete OutputSection
handles only one type of chunk and we don't need a base Chunk class.
So for we have a class that handles input sections and one that handles
the string table, but this extends naturally for other outputs (symbol table,
merging of SHF_MERGE sections, etc.).

We were creating the string table in a completely ad hoc way. Now the
string table is an output section and gets its output offset set just like
any other section.
This opens the way for other linker created sections like the symbol table.

This is a bit more c++ code, but:
* It is less machine code: lld's text is 44688 bytes smaller.
* It should be a bit more efficient in the non native endian case.
* It should be a bit more efficient on architectures with slow unaligned access.

Add PT_PHDR segment depending on its availability in linker script's
PHDRS command, fallback if no linker script is given.
Handle FILEHDR, PHDRS and FLAGS attributes of program header.

Sections must start at page boundaries in memory, but they
can be aligned to sector boundaries (512-bytes) on disk.
We aligned them to 4096-byte boundaries even on disk, so we
wasted disk space a bit.

A global variable "Driver" is to re-entry to the driver to parse a
.drectve section. Because the need is COFF-specific, we don't need
this variable for ELF.

MSVC 2015's load configuration object (__load_config_used) contains
references to these symbols. I don't fully understand how it works,
but looks like these symbols are linker-defined ones. So I define them
here in the Driver. With this patch, LLD can self-host with MSVC 2015.
This patch is to link MSVC 2015-produced object files. It does not
implement Control Flow Protection. If I understand correctly, the
linker has to create a bitmap of function entry point addresses for
the CFG runtime. We don't do that yet. Produced executables will not
be protected by CFG.

SymbolTable::find(mangle(X)) is equivalent to SymbolTable::findUnderscore(X)
except that the latter is slightly efficient as that doesn't allocate a new
string.
