This patch implements parsing of the GNU ld MEMORY command [1].
The command and the memory block definitions are parsed as
specified (including the slightly strange "o" and "l" keywords).
Evaluation will be added at a later point in time.

This patch does *not* implement any semantic actions, but it is a first step to
teach LLD how to read complete linker scripts. The additional linker scripts
statements whose parsing is now supported are:
* SEARCH_DIR directive
* SECTIONS directive
* Symbol definitions inside SECTIONS including PROVIDE and PROVIDE_HIDDEN
* C-like expressions used in many places in linker scripts
* Input to output sections mapping
The goal of this commit was guided towards completely parsing a default GNU ld
linker script and the linker script used to link the FreeBSD kernel. Thus, it
also adds a test case based on the default linker script used in GNU ld for
x86_64 ELF targets. I tested SPEC userland programs linked by GNU ld, using the
linker script dump'ed by this parser, and everything went fine. I then tested
linking the FreeBSD kernel with a dump'ed linker script, installed the new
kernel and booted it, everything went fine.
Directives that still need to be implemented:
* MEMORY
* PHDRS

There are two forms of `-l` prefixed expression:
* -l<libname>
* -l:<filename>
In the first case a linker should construct a full library name
`lib + libname + .[so|a]` and search this library as usual. In the second case
a linker should use the `<filename>` as is and search this file through library
search directories.
