Folding a constant expression early can lead to loss of tokens, eg.
ABSOLUTE, that are significant in ld's horrible context sensitive
expression evaluation. Also, MAXPAGESIZE and other "constants" may
not have taken values specified on the command line, leading to the
wrong value being cached.

Makes these symbols defined before bfd_elf_size_dynamic_sections, to

Giving linker script symbols defined outside of output sections a

The linker tries to put the end of the last section in the relro
segment exactly on a page boundary, because the relro segment itself
must end on a page boundary. If for any reason this can't be done,
padding is inserted. Since the end of the relro segment is typically
between .got and .got.plt, padding effectively increases the size of
the GOT. This isn't nice for targets and code models with limited GOT
addressing.
The problem with the current code is that it doesn't cope very well
with aligned sections in the relro segment. When making .got aligned
to a 256 byte boundary for PowerPC64, I found that often the initial
alignment attempt failed and the fallback attempt to be less than
adequate. This is a particular problem for PowerPC64 since the
distance between .got and .plt affects the size of plt call stubs,
leading to "stubs don't match calculated size" errors.
So this rewrite takes a direct approach to calculating a new relro
base. Starting from the last section in the segment, we calculate
where it must start to position its end on the boundary, or as near as
possible considering alignment requirements. The new start then
becomes the goal for the previous section to end, and so on for all
sections. This of course ignores the possibility that user scripts
will place . = ALIGN(xxx); in the relro segment, or provide section
address expressions. In those cases we might fail, but the old code
probably did too, and a fallback is provided.

Adjusting the start of the relro segment in order to make it end
exactly on a page boundary runs into difficulties when sections in the
relro segment are aligned; Adjusting the start by (next_page - end)
sometimes results in more than that adjustment occurring at the end,
overrunning the page boundary. So when that occurs we try a new lower
start position by masking the adjusted start with the maximum section
alignment. However, we didn't consider that this masked start address
may in fact be before the initial relro base, which is silly since
that can only increase padding at the relro end.
I've also moved some calculations closer to where they are used, and
comments closer to the relevant statements.

This patch fixes PR 4643 by allowing symbols in the LENGTH and ORIGIN

An assignment to dot in an output section that allocates space of
course keeps the output section. Here, I'm changing the behaviour for
assignments that don't allocate space. The idea is not so much to
allow people to force output of an empty section with ". = .", but
to fix cases where an otherwise empty section has padding added by an
alignment expression that changes with relaxation or .eh_frame
editing. Such a section might have zero size before relaxation and so
be stripped incorrectly.
