Temporary symbols generated for .eh_frame and .debug_line have an empty name, which appear in .symtab in the presence of RISC-V style linker relaxation and will not be discarded by ld/objcopy --discard-locals (-X). In contrast, GNU assembler's riscv port assigns a fake name ".L0 " (with a trailing space) to these symbols so that will be discarded by ld/objcopy --discard-locals. This patch matches the GNU behavior. Since Clang's RISC-V targets pass -X to ld, and GNU ld defaults to -X for RISC-V targets, these ".L0 " symbols will be discarded after linking by default, as expected by users. The llvm-symbolizer special case for RISC-V `SF_FormatSpecific` symbols https://reviews.llvm.org/D98669 needs to be adjusted. Note: `"":` in assembly currently crashes.
