Currently, we pass elfsetstring to the loader as a callback, for
a special case of Addstring. This is only used for ELF when adding
strings to the section header string table. Move the logic to the
caller instead, so the loader would not have this special case.

This CL updates the linker to support
IMAGE_REL_[I386|AMD64|ARM|ARM64]_ADDR32NB relocations via the new
R_PEIMAGEOFF relocation type. This relocation type references symbols
using RVAs instead of VA, so it can use 4-byte offsets to reference
symbols that would normally require 8-byte offsets.
This new relocation is still not used, but will be useful when
generating Structured Exception Handling (SEH) metadata, which
needs to reference functions only using 4-byte addresses, thus
using RVAs instead of VA is of great help.

As it can't appear in user package paths.
There is a hack for handling "go:buildid" and "type:*" on windows/386.
Previously, windows/386 requires underscore prefix on external symbols,
but that's only applied for SHOSTOBJ/SUNDEFEXT or cgo export symbols.
"go.buildid" is STEXT, "type.*" is STYPE, thus they are not prefixed
with underscore.
In external linking mode, the external linker can't resolve them as
external symbols. But we are lucky that they have "." in their name,
so the external linker see them as Forwarder RVA exports. See:
- https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/debug/pe-format#export-address-table
- https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=blob;f=ld/pe-dll.c;h=e7b82ba6ffadf74dc1b9ee71dc13d48336941e51;hb=HEAD#l972)
This CL changes "." to ":" in symbols name, so theses symbols can not be
found by external linker anymore. So a hacky way is adding the
underscore prefix for these 2 symbols. I don't have enough knowledge to
verify whether adding the underscore for all STEXT/STYPE symbols are
fine, even if it could be, that would be done in future CL.

Currently, relocation type is stored as uint8 in object files, as
Go relocations do not exceed 255. In the linker, however, it is
used as a 16-bit type, because external relocations can exceed
255. The linker has to store the extra byte in a side table. This
complicates many things.
Just store it as uint16 in object files. This simplifies things,
with a small cost of increasing the object file sizes.

For dupOK symbols, their attributes should be OR'd. Most of the
attributes are expected to be set consistently across multiple
definitions, but UsedInIface must be OR'd, and for alignment we
need to pick the largest one. Currently the attributes are not
always OR'd, depending on addSym returning true or false. This
doesn't cause any real problem, but it would be a problem if we
make type descriptor symbols content-addressable.
This CL removes the second result of addSym, and lets preloadSyms
always set the attributes. Also removes the alignment handling on
addSym, handles it in preloadSyms only.

Introduce a new loader method "AddInteriorSym" to be used when
establishing container/containee symbol relationships for host object
sub-symbols and GOT/dynamic sub-symbols.
Interior symbols are employed in situations where you have a
"container" or "payload" symbol that has content, and then a series of
"interior" sub-symbols that point into a portion of the container
symbol's content. Each interior symbol will typically have a useful
name / size / value, but no content of its own. From a symbol table
perspective the container symbol is anonymous, but the interior
symbols are added to the output symbol table.

The loader's SymbolBuilder Add*/Set* methods include a call to mark
the underlying symbol as reachable (as a convenience, so that callers
would not have to set it explicitly). This code was carried over from
the corresponding sym.Symbol methods; back in the sym.Symbol world
unreachable symbols were never removed from the AllSyms slice, hence
setting and checking reachability was a good deal more important.
With the advent of the loader and the new deadcode implementation,
there is less of a need for this sort of fallback, and in addition the
implicit attr setting introduces data races in the the loader if there
are SymbolBuilder Add*/Set* method calls in parallel threads, as well
as adding overhead to the methods.
This patch gets rid of the implicit reachability setting, and instead
marks reachability in CreateSymForUpdate, as well as adding a few
explicit SetAttrReachable calls where needed.

non-package symbols
Currently, the loader adds defined package symbols and
non-package symbols to the global index space object by object.
This CL changes it to add all the defined package symbols first,
then all the non-package symbols. The advantage of doing this is
that when adding package symbols, by definition they cannot be
dup to each other, so we don't need to do a name lookup when
adding them.
We still add them to the lookup table (for now), since they may
still be referenced by name (e.g. through linkname). This CL is
also a prerequisite if we want to move to not adding package
symbols to the lookup table entirely (e.g. by using
pre-generated in-file lookup table).
Also update some comments to reflect the current state.

Currently, when mapping symbol's local index to global index, for
duplicated and overwriting/overwritten symbols, each appearance
of the symbol gets a global index, with one being the "primary",
and others "redirect" to it through the overwrite map. Basically,
the local-global index mapping is one to one, with overwrite/
dedup happening in global index level.
This has a few drawbacks:
- All symbol accesses effectively need to query the overwrite
map. This may hurt performance.
- For multi-level overwrites, (Y overwrites X, Z overwrites Y),
this can get quite complicated, and we have to follow the
redirection recursively.
- Failed to follow or to update the overwrite map leads to bugs.
In this CL, we change the index mapping mechanism so that each
symbol get a unique global index. Multiple appearances of the
same symbol get the same index. Now the local-global index
mapping is N to one. Overwrite/dedup happens directly in the
local-global mapping.
We keep both mapping directions in arrays. Each object carries
an array for its local-global mapping. The loader carries an
array mapping global index to the "primary" local index, which is
the one we should load from. This way, we can get rid of the
overwrite map, and index conversions are simply array accesses.
TODO: we still make reservation of the index space upfront, and
leave holes for dup symbols. Maybe get rid of the reservation and
holes.

Currently, the symbol updater uses a pointer pointing to the
loader's payloads array. If the payloads slice grows (and moves),
the pointer may become stale and no longer point to the symbol's
actual payload. Specifically, consider
sb, sym := l.MakeSymbolUpdater(...)
// add a bunch of external symbols, which grows payload slice
sb.SetType(t)
l.SymType(sym) // may not return t
sb.SetType on line 3 may not have the desired effect, as
sb.extSymPayload may no longer point to the right payload. As a
result, the type we get on line 4 may be not the one we set.
Fix this by making the payload's address permanent. Once it is
allocated it will never move.

The basic idea is to manufacture a new external symbol with the same

relocations, etc) into the payload struct for the new symbol, and
finally redirect the name lookup tables to target the new sym for the

Add in a collection of new loader interfaces for getting/setting
symbol attributes, e.g. properties that would normally be part of the
sym.Symbol "Attr" field. This change also moves references to the
loaders 'reachable' bitmap behind a pair of loader methods, so that we
a consistent way of accessing symbol attributes overall. It is worth
noting that not every symbol attribute is backed by a bitmap; for some
infrequently used attributes, a map[Sym]struct{} is used instead.

Create loader infrastructure for constructing the payloads of external
symbols from scratch, as opposed to passing in a sym.Symbol object
containing the payload.
The general idea is that clients can use the loader to create new
external Sym's using loader.AddExtSym, and then can add
relocations/data to the new sym with symbol builder interfaces (to be
provided in an subsequent patch), as opposed to having to use
sym.Symbol.
This change preserves compatibility with the old way of doing things
(passing in sym.Symbol) via a new loader.InstallSym method. If a
client invokes this method for a specific Sym, then the loader keeps
track of this fact and uses the sym.Symbol as the backing store instead.
Also included is a small unit test for the new interfaces -- not clear
whether this really needs to be kept around long term... it was mainly
useful during initial bringup.
