This is one part of the fix for GCC PR109128, along with a
corresponding GCC change. Without this patch, what happens in the
linker, when an unused object in a .a file has offload data, is that
elf_link_is_defined_archive_symbol calls bfd_link_plugin_object_p,
which ends up calling the plugin's claim_file_handler, which then
records the object as one with offload data. That is, the linker never
decides to use the object in the first place, but use of this _p
interface (called as part of trying to decide whether to use the
object) results in the plugin deciding to use its offload data (and a
consequent mismatch in the offload data present at runtime).
The new hook allows the linker plugin to distinguish calls to
claim_file_handler that know the object is being used by the linker
(from ldmain.c:add_archive_element), from calls that don't know it's
being used by the linker (from elf_link_is_defined_archive_symbol); in
the latter case, the plugin should avoid recording the object as one
with offload data.

Update test expectations.
The newer update-copyright.py fixes file encoding too, removing cr/lf
on binutils/bfdtest2.c and ld/testsuite/ld-cygwin/exe-export.exp, and
embedded cr in binutils/testsuite/binutils-all/ar.exp string match.
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.
