We have three copies of run_dump_test in the testsuite. This is a first
step towards consolidating them.
A few tests use objcopy to convert to verilog or srec output, then
check that output is as expected. Those tests can just as easily use
objdump, keeping the set of dump programs (addr2line, nm, objdump,
readelf, size) separate from utilities under test. That in turn makes
auto-detecting the dump program possible in more places.

This fixes the case where all of a group is removed with ld -r, the
situation in the PR, and failures where part of a group is removed
that contain relocs.

* elf.c (_bfd_elf_fixup_group_sections): Account for removed
relocation sections. If size reduces to just the flag word,
remove that too and mark with SEC_EXCLUDE.
