This patch provides a means for backend relax_section support to
increase the size of a section without needing to reallocate
section contents. This helps reduce memory usage when the added space
does not need to be written in relax_section, as is the case for
powerpc. Writing the stubs later means a few tweaks are needed in the
powerpc relocate_section function, but also removes some code
duplication since the extra ld -r relocs can be written there too.

This implements a work-around for an icache bug on 476 that can cause
execution of stale instructions when control falls through from one
page to the next. The idea is to prevent such fall-through by
replacing the last instruction on a page with a branch to a patch
area containing the instruction, then branch to the next page.
The patch also fixes a number of bugs in the existing support for long
branch trampolines.

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.
There is nothing linker can do when a type mismatched default definition
are made dynamic by info->shared, info->export_dynamic or h->ref_dynamic.
But we do want to avoid exporting it when building PIE. Let's remove
those checks.

non-PIC references to __ehdr_start in pie and shared
Rather than hacking every backend to not discard dynamic relocations
against an undefined hidden __ehdr_start, make it appear to be defined
early. We want __ehdr_start hidden before size_dynamic_sections so
that it isn't put in .dynsym, but we do need the dynamic relocations
for a PIE or shared library with a non-PIC reference. Defining it
early is wrong if we don't actually define the symbol later to its
proper value. (In some cases we want to leave the symbol undefined,
for example, when the ELF header isn't loaded, and we don't have this
infomation available in before_allocation.)
