The result of running etc/update-copyright.py --this-year, fixing all
the files whose mode is changed by the script, plus a build with
--enable-maintainer-mode --enable-cgen-maint=yes, then checking
out */po/*.pot which we don't update frequently.
The copy of cgen was with commit d1dd5fcc38ead reverted as that commit
breaks building of bfp opcodes files.
The aim of this change is to remove a whole lot of "assembly failed"
errors for ecoff targets.

ELF size_dynamic_sections is called by the ELF backend linker after all
the linker input files have been seen but before the section sizes have
been set. After the sections sizes have been set, target-specific,
global optimizations may make some dynamic sections zero-sized if they
are no longer needed.
Add ELF strip_zero_sized_dynamic_sections so that ELF backend linker can
strip zero-sized dynamic sections after the sections sizes have been set.

It was reasonable to mark PT_PHDR segment with PF_X for compatibility
with UnixWare and Solaris linkers 20 years ago. But it is inappropriate
today when the primary OS of GNU ld is Linux. This patch removes PF_X
from PT_PHDR segment as gold does.
Tested natively on Linux/x86 as well as crosss-binutils for alpha-linux,
ia64-linux, powerpc64-linux, powerpc-linux, s390-linux, s390x-linux,
sparc64-linux and sparc-linux.

I was having a little closer look at what is going on here and noticed
that HJ unconditionally emits a NULL STT_FILE symbol before emitting
forced local symbols. That means we really don't need a second pass
over forced local symbols. The only reason for two passes is when
some forced local symbol can be emitted before the NULL STT_FILE. So
I set about removing the second pass, updating the testsuite all over
again. It's also unnecessary to emit the NULL STT_FILE when no
previous file symbol has been emitted.
