`R_LARCH_PCREL20_S2` is a new added relocation type in LoongArch ELF
psABI v2.10 [1] which is not corvered by D138135 except `R_LARCH_64_PCREL`.
A motivation to support `R_LARCH_PCREL20_S2` in lld is to build the
runtime of .NET core (a.k.a `CoreCLR`) in which strict PC-relative
semantics need to be guaranteed [2]. The normal `pcalau12i + addi.d`
approach doesn't work because the code will be copied to other places
with different "page" and offsets. To achieve this, we can use `pcaddi`
with explicit `R_LARCH_PCREL20_S2` reloc to address +-2MB PC-relative
range with 4-bytes aligned.

(cherry picked from commit 8a31f7ddb8436fa2a8ad754eb51618139cf63415)
Initially the .rodata section came before .text, hence sharing its
segment with the program header sitting at a small offset, pushing the
output file size to ~72GiB (the file was sparse though, so not much is
really written). This breaks on 32-bit platforms and is irrelevant to
the feature being tested, so re-order the two sections so .text gets
processed first, and both sections get their own segment.
This addresses the issue found by the clang-armv8-lld-2stage builder:

This adds support for the LoongArch ELF psABI v2.00 [1] relocation
model to LLD. The deprecated stack-machine-based psABI v1 relocs are not
supported.
The code is tested by successfully bootstrapping a Gentoo/LoongArch

GNU toolchains (GNU toolchain is present only for building glibc,
LLVM+Clang+LLD are used for the rest). Large programs like QEMU are
tested to work as well.

There is a strange issue happening with command line processing though. The
command line argument
--export-dynamic-symbol 'f*'
does not have the single quotes stripped on some Windows targets (but not
all). This causes the glob matching to fail, which means the test fails on
some Windows bots and passes on others.
This is expected to be a temporary measure to get bots back to green. I've not
found a commit that has caused a behavioral change that could be reverted
instead, so this could be an issue with lit or test machine configuration.
Similar to recent changes to ELF (e.g., D154813), Mach-O, and COFF to

For a relocation, we don't differentiate the two cases:
* the symbol index is 0
* the symbol index is non zero, the type is not STT_SECTION, and the name is empty. Clang generates such local symbols for RISC-V linker relaxation.
So we may print
```
Offset Info Type Symbol's Value Symbol's Name + Addend

This patch adds support to lld for --fat-lto-objects. We add a new
--fat-lto-objects flag to LLD, and slightly change how it chooses input
files in the driver when the flag is set.
Fat LTO objects contain both LTO compatible IR, as well as generated object
code. This allows users to defer the choice of whether to use LTO or not to
link-time. This is a feature available in GCC for some time, and makes the
existing -ffat-lto-objects flag functional in the same way as GCC's.
If the --fat-lto-objects option is passed to LLD and the input files are fat
object files, then the linker will chose the LTO compatible bitcode sections
embedded within the fat object and link them together using LTO. Otherwise,
standard object file linking is done using the assembly section in the object
files.

This is primarily used for .rodata.cst* duplicate elimination. The
sections are usually much smaller than .debug_str (D154813), so the
speedup is negligible. We do this switch for consistency as we want to
eliminate xxh64 in lld.
Detail:
LD64 uses the name provided via -[dylib]install_name as "Identifier", when available.
For compatiblity, LLD should do that too.

The unified LTO pipeline creates a single LTO bitcode structure that can
be used by Thin or Full LTO. This means that the LTO mode can be chosen
at link time and that all LTO bitcode produced by the pipeline is
compatible, from an optimization perspective. This makes the behavior of
LTO a bit more predictable by normalizing the set of LTO features
supported by each LTO bitcode file.
Example usage:
clang -flto -funified-lto -fuse-ld=lld foo.c
clang -flto=thin -funified-lto -fuse-ld=lld foo.c
clang -c -flto -funified-lto foo.c # -flto={full,thin} are identical in
terms of compilation actions
clang -flto=thin -fuse-ld=lld foo.o # pass --lto=thin to ld.lld

In 64 bit mode, any references to symbols that might end up autoimported
must be made via full 64 bit pointers (usually in .refptr stubs
generated by the compiler).
If referenced via e.g. a 32 bit rip relative offset, it might work
as long as DLLs are loaded close together in the 64 bit address
space, but will fail surprisingly later if they happen to be loaded
further apart. Any cases of that happening is usually a toolchain
error, and the sooner we can warn about it, the easier it is to diagnose.

This commit provides linker support for Cortex-M Security Extensions (CMSE).
The specification for this feature can be found in ARM v8-M Security Extensions:
Requirements on Development Tools.
The linker synthesizes a security gateway veneer in a special section;
`.gnu.sgstubs`, when it finds non-local symbols `__acle_se_<entry>` and `<entry>`,
defined relative to the same text section and having the same address. The
address of `<entry>` is retargeted to the starting address of the
linker-synthesized security gateway veneer in section `.gnu.sgstubs`.
In summary, the linker translates input:
```
.text
entry:
__acle_se_entry:
[entry_code]
```
into:
```
.section .gnu.sgstubs
entry:
SG
B.W __acle_se_entry
.text
__acle_se_entry:
[entry_code]
```
If addresses of `__acle_se_<entry>` and `<entry>` are not equal, the linker
considers that `<entry>` already defines a secure gateway veneer so does not
synthesize one.
If `--out-implib=<out.lib>` is specified, the linker writes the list of secure
gateway veneers into a CMSE import library `<out.lib>`. The CMSE import library
will have 3 sections: `.symtab`, `.strtab`, `.shstrtab`. For every secure gateway
veneer <entry> at address `<addr>`, `.symtab` contains a `SHN_ABS` symbol `<entry>` with
value `<addr>`.
If `--in-implib=<in.lib>` is specified, the linker reads the existing CMSE import
library `<in.lib>` and preserves the entry function addresses in the resulting
executable and new import library.

labelled with other vendor names can be used for optimisation

LLD currently terminates parsing of the whole attributes section as
