elf_xtensa_gc_sweep_hook doesn't correctly unreference symbols that were
made local, that results in link failure with the following message:
BFD (GNU Binutils) 2.24 internal error, aborting at elf32-xtensa.c line
3372 in elf_xtensa_finish_dynamic_sections
elf_xtensa_gc_sweep_hook determines symbol reference type (PLT or GOT) by
relocation type. Relocation types are not changed when symbol becomes
local, but its PLT references are added to GOT references and
plt.refcount is set to 0. Such symbol cannot be unreferences in the
elf_xtensa_gc_sweep_hook and its extra references make calculated GOT
relocations section size not match number of GOT relocations.
Fix it by treating PLT reference as GOT reference when plt.refcount is
not positive.

When we set up st_name for output section name in elf_fake_sections, we
don't know if the compressed DWARF debug section will be smaller. We may
end up with compressed DWARF debug sections which are bigger than the
uncompressed ones. This patch delays setting up st_name for output DWARF
debug section to _bfd_elf_assign_file_positions_for_non_load which will
compress the output debug section. We also postpone placement of shstrtab
section after DWARF debug sections have been compressed. The net effect
is .shstrtab section is now placed after .symtab and .strtab sections.

Change compressed input debug section name for objdump is very confusing.
But we need to change it for linker so that linker will consider the
input section as a debug section. This patch delays section rename to
