The SOM backend creates BFD sections for "spaces", and "sub-spaces".
"sub-spaces" are what we normally think of as a section, "spaces"
aggregate "sub-spaces". Thus it does not really make sense to include
"spaces" for size -A since that would double count total size.
It so happens that real sections ought to have at least one of the
ALLOC and HAS_CONTENTS flags set, so this patch excludes "spaces" but
excluding BFD sections with no flags set.

* size.c (sysv_internal_sizer, sysv_internal_printer): Exclude
sections with no flag bits set.
* testsuite/binutils-all/size.exp: Allow $CODE$ as a text section.
The size tool currently defaults to berkeley format output. However,
this output format has a weird quirk, read-only data is counted
against the text sections, not the data sections.
The code offers no real explanation for why this is, but I'm reluctant
to change it for two reasons, first, I'm assuming it probably makes
sense in some case that I'm not thinking of (maybe a target where
sections are not marked executable, and so there's no distinction
between read-only data and code), and second, the code has been this
way for at least 20 years, I worry that changing things now might
cause more confusion than it solves.
This commit then introduces a new output format for the size tool,
this new format displays the results in a similar manor to the
berkeley format, but counts read-only data in the data column, and
only executable sections are counted in the text column.
Given that this is a brand new output format I've gone ahead and
simplified things a little, while the berkeley format displays the
total twice, once in decimal and once in hex, the new display format
just displays the total in decimal. Of course, there's still the
'--radix' option which can be used to display all the results in
hexadecimal or octal.
I've called the new format 'gnu', so '--format=gnu' or '-G' are used
to access it.

This patch performs a run-time test that a shared libbfd.so has been
compiled with the same size bfd_vma as that of apps using the library.
On a 32-bit host it is easily possible to have one libbfd.so compiled
to support 64-bit targets (or configured with --enable-64-bit-bfd)
while another only supports 32-bit targets. The two libraries will
have differently sized bfd_vma types, and if the wrong one is loaded
all sorts of weird behaviour might be seen.
