elfNN_bed was made writable as an expedient means of communicating
ld -z max-page-size and ld -z common-page-size values to BFD linker
code, and even for objcopy to communicate segment alignment between
copy_private_bfd_data, rewrite_elf_program_header and
assign_file_positions_for_load_sections. Some time later elfNN_bed
elf_osabi was written by gas. It turns out none of these
modifications to elfNN_bed was necessary, so make it const again.

libctf recently changed to make it possible to not emit the CTF
variables section. Make this the default for ld: the variables section
is a simple name -> type mapping, and the names can be quite voluminous.
Nothing in the variables section appears in the symbol table, by
definition, so GDB cannot make use of them: special-purpose projects
that implement their own analogues of symbol table lookup can do so, but
they'll need to tell the linker to emit the variables section after all.
The new --ctf-variables option does this.
The --ctf-share-types option (valid values "share-duplicated" and
"share-unconflicted") allow the caller to specify the CTF link mode.
Most users will want share-duplicated, since it allows for more
convenient debugging: but very large projects composed of many decoupled
components may want to use share-unconflicted mode, which places types
that appear in only one TU into per-TU dicts. (They may also want to
relink the CTF using the ctf_link API and cu-mapping, to make their
"components" larger than a single TU. Right now the linker does not
expose the CU-mapping machinery. Perhaps it should in future to make
this use case easier.)
For now, giving the linker the ability to emit share-duplicated CTF lets
us add testcases for that mode to the testsuite.

binutils has lacked proper pluralization of output messages for a long
time, for example, readelf will display information about a section
that "contains 1 entries" or "There are 1 section headers". Fixing
this properly requires us to use ngettext, because other languages
have different rules to English.
This patch defines macros for ngettext and friends to handle builds
with --disable-nls, and tidies the existing nls support. I've
redefined gettext rather than just defining "_" as dgettext in bfd and
opcodes in case someone wants to use gettext there (which might
conceivably happen with generated code).

When --no-define-common is used to build shared library, treat common
symbol as undefined so that common symbols that are referenced from a
shared library to be assigned addresses only in the main program. This
eliminates the unused duplicate space in the shared library, and also
prevents any possible confusion over resolving to the wrong duplicate
when there are many dynamic modules with specialized search paths for
runtime symbol resolution.
--no-define-common is only allowed when building a shared library.

This commit adds a new linker feature: the ability to resolve section
groups as part of a relocatable link.
Currently section groups are automatically resolved when performing a
final link, and are carried through when performing a relocatable link.
By carried through this means that one copy of each section group (from
all the copies that might be found in all the input files) is placed
into the output file. Sections that are part of a section group will
not match input section specifiers within a linker script and are
forcibly kept as separate sections.
There is a slight resemblance between section groups and common
section. Like section groups, common sections are carried through when
performing a relocatable link, and resolved (allocated actual space)
only at final link time.
However, with common sections there is an ability to force the linker to
allocate space for the common sections when performing a relocatable
link, there's currently no such ability for section groups.
This commit adds such a mechanism. This new facility can be accessed in
two ways, first there's a command line switch --force-group-allocation,
second, there's a new linker script command FORCE_GROUP_ALLOCATION. If
one of these is used when performing a relocatable link then the linker
will resolve the section groups as though it were performing a final
link, the section group will be deleted, and the members of the group
will be placed like normal input sections. If there are multiple copies
of the group (from multiple input files) then only one copy of the group
members will be placed, the duplicate copies will be discarded.
Unlike common sections that have the --no-define-common command line
flag, and INHIBIT_COMMON_ALLOCATION linker script command there is no
way to prevent group resolution during a final link, this is because the
ELF gABI specifically prohibits the presence of SHT_GROUP sections in a
fully linked executable. However, the code as written should make
adding such a feature trivial, setting the new resolve_section_groups
flag to false during a final link should work as you'd expect.

A long time ago ld made use of userdata to tie an output section to
its lang_input_statement_struct object file. Some time later Joern
made map file printing of symbols at lot faster, using userdata on
input sections. That complicated allocation of userdata, and when the
output section use disappeared a year later, the code wasn't properly
cleaned up. This patch does that cleanup, and also tidies the symbol
printing code to not allocate userdata where it won't be needed. We

sections.
