/* Linker machinery.

   CTF linking consists of adding CTF archives full of content to be merged into
   this one to the current file (which must be writable) by calling
   ctf_link_add_ctf().  Once this is done, a call to ctf_link() will merge the
   type tables together, generating new CTF files as needed, with this one as a
   parent, to contain types from the inputs which conflict.
   ctf_link_add_strtab() takes a callback which provides string/offset pairs to
   be added to the external symbol table and deduplicated from all CTF string
   tables in the output link; ctf_link_shuffle_syms() takes a callback which
   provides symtab entries in ascending order, and shuffles the function and
   data sections to match; and ctf_link_write() emits a CTF file (if there are
   no conflicts requiring per-compilation-unit sub-CTF files) or CTF archives
   (otherwise) and returns it, suitable for addition in the .ctf section of the
   output.  */
