Following from the discussion in #132224, this seems like the best approach to deal with a mix of XO and RX output sections in the same binary. This change will also simplify the implementation of the PURECODE section flag for AArch64. To control this behaviour, the `--[no-]xosegment` flag is added to LLD (similarly to `--[no-]rosegment`), which determines whether to allow merging XO and RX sections in the same segment. The default value is `--no-xosegment`, which is a breaking change compared to the previous behaviour. Release notes are also added, since this will be a breaking change.
