The CTF header has before now been thrown away too soon to be dumped
using the ctf_dump() machinery used by objdump and readelf: instead, a
kludge involving debugging-priority dumps of the header offsets on every
open was used.
Replace this with proper first-class dumping machinery just like
everything else in the CTF file, and have objdump and readelf use it.
(The dumper already had an enum value in ctf_sect_names_t for this
purpose, waiting to be used.)

There is a bunch of things left over after a `make clean` in the doc
directory. This patch changes the Makefile so that everything built by
make is cleaned:
- man pages (the man_MANS variable)
- cxxfilt.man
- binutils.info
I am not sure why the last one was in MAINTAINERCLEANFILES. It's
generated from binutils.texi using makeinfo, and it's not particularly
long to build, so I don't see why it shouldn't be cleaned like the other
files.
Note: with my automake 1,15.1 (built from source), I get a spurious diff
in Makefile.in, where the
runstatedir = @runstatedir@
line gets removed. I am not sure why, but I haven't included it.

The `install-data-local: install-info` part: the comment refers to when
the Makefile had the cygnus option. It no longer uses that, so the info

using 1.15.1, which doesn't appear to have this problem. binutils.info
is built fine without this snippet.

I get some spurious changes when running autoconf/automake for various

distro-patched tools last time.
I ran `autoreconf -f` in the various automake projects of the
binutils-gdb tree, and this is the result. The tools I am using have
been compiled from source, from the upstream release.

This constifies the argument to make_tempname and make_tempdir,

I initially thought that this obsoleted the allocation in
write_archive, but write_archive closes the BFD before using the name,
so this appears not to be the case.

This patch is a reimplementation of [1] which was submitted in 2015 by
Neil Schellenberger. Copyright issue was sorted out [2] last year.
It proposed a new section (.gnu.xhash) and related dynamic tag
(DT_GNU_XHASH). The new section would be virtually identical to the
existing .gnu.hash except for the translation table (xlat) which would
contain correct MIPS .dynsym indexes corresponding to the hashvals in
chains. This is because MIPS ABI imposes a different ordering on the
dynsyms than the one expected by the .gnu.hash section. Another addition
would be a leading word (ngnusyms) which would contain the number of
entries in the translation table.
In this patch, the new section name and dynamic tag are changed to
reflect the fact that the section should be treated as MIPS-specific
(.MIPS.xhash and DT_MIPS_XHASH).
This patch addresses the alignment issue as reported in [3], which is
caused by the leading word added to the .MIPS.xhash section. Leading word
is removed in this patch, and the number of entries in the translation
table is now calculated using DT_MIPS_SYMTABNO dynamic tag (this is
addressed by the corresponding glibc patch).
Suggestions on coding style in [4] were taken into account. Existing
GNU hash testcase was covered, and another one was added in the MIPS
part of the testsuite.
The other major change is reserving MIPS ABI version 5 for .MIPS.xhash,
marking the need of support for .MIPS.xhash in the dynamic linker (again,
addressed in the corresponding glibc patch). This is something which I
am not sure of, especially after reading [5]. I am confused on whether
this ABI version is reserved for IFUNC, or it can be used for this
purpose.
