An assignment to dot in an output section that allocates space of
course keeps the output section. Here, I'm changing the behaviour for
assignments that don't allocate space. The idea is not so much to
allow people to force output of an empty section with ". = .", but
to fix cases where an otherwise empty section has padding added by an
alignment expression that changes with relaxation or .eh_frame
editing. Such a section might have zero size before relaxation and so
be stripped incorrectly.

After resolving a versioned reference, foo@VER1, to a default versioned
definition, foo@@VER1, from a shared object, we also merge it with
the existing regular default symbol definition, foo. When foo is IFUNC
and foo@@VER1 aren't, we will merge 2 incompatible definitions. This
patch avoids merging foo@@VER1 definition with foo definition if
one is IFUNC and the other isn't.
This is to avoid expressions like: %hi(foo) + 1, which will
not do what you expect. The complex relocations can handle it,
but the internal fixups can't.

Currently, xtensa code using the Linux ptrace interface only include
sys/ptrace.h. This file comes from the C library (glibc and uClibc,
at least), and includes a declaration of the ptrace() functions, along
with some cross architecture constants that are mostly copied from the
file located at include/uapi/linux/ptrace.h in recent Linux kernels.
For xtensa specific constants like PTRACE_GETXTREGS and
PTRACE_SETXTREGS the asm/ptrace.h include from the Linux kernel UAPI
is needed. The code in gdbserver xtensa specific part doesn't call
ptrace() directly, so we can remove the unneeded sys/ptrace.h include.
The gdb xtensa specific code needs both headers, since it calls
ptrace().

The test fails on s390 with:
-trace-find frame-number 0^M
&"PC not available\n"^M
^done,found="1",tracepoint="1",traceframe="0",frame={level="-1",addr="<unavailable>",func="??",args=[]}^M
(gdb) ^M
FAIL: gdb.trace/mi-traceframe-changed.exp: tfile: -trace-find frame-number 0
tfile knows to infer the PC from the tracepoint's address if the PC
wasn't collected (tfile_fetch_registers) but, that only works on
targets whose PC register is a raw register, and on s390, the PC
register is a pseudo register.
But even if GDB doesn't know how to infer the value of PC, saying the
current frame is level -1 is a bug:
^done,found="1",tracepoint="1",traceframe="0",frame={level="-1",addr="<unavailable>",func="??",args=[]}^M
^^^^^^^^^
'-1' is the level of the sentinel frame, which should never be visible.
This is caused by the s390's heuristic unwinder accepting the frame
(the fallback heuristic unwinders _always_ accept the frame), but then
the unwind->this_id method throws that "PC not available\n" error.
IOW, the s390's heuristic unwinder was never adjusted to handle
unavailable register values gracefully, which can happen with e.g., a
trimmed core file too.
This is just the minimal necessary for
<unavailable> frames, which at least gets us:
(gdb) tfind
Found trace frame 0, tracepoint 1
#0 <unavailable> in ?? ()
That is, frame #0 instead of -1.
We could get better info out of "info frame" (this patch makes us show
"outermost"), but this change would still be necessary.
