35a01a0454 libctf, ld: fix symtypetab and var section population under ld -r
The variable section in a CTF dict is meant to contain the types of
variables that do not appear in the symbol table (mostly file-scope
static declarations).  We implement this by having the compiler emit
all potential data symbols into both sections, then delete those
symbols from the variable section that correspond to data symbols the
linker has reported.

Unfortunately, the check for this in ctf_serialize is wrong: rather than
checking the set of linker-reported symbols, we check the set of names
in the data object symtypetab section: if the linker has reported no
symbols at all (usually if ld -r has been run, or if a non-linker
program that does not use symbol tables is calling ctf_link) this will
include every single symbol, emptying the variable section completely.

Worse, when ld -r is in use, we want to force writeout of every
symtypetab entry on the inputs, in an indexed section, whether or not
the linker has reported them, since this isn't a final link yet and the
symbol table is not finalized (and may grow more symbols than the linker
has yet reported).  But the check for this is flawed too: we were
relying on ctf_link_shuffle_syms not having been called if no symbols
exist, but that function is *always* called by ld even when ld -r is in
use: ctf_link_add_linker_symbol is the one that's not called when there
are no symbols.

We clearly need to rethink this.  Using the emptiness of the set of
reported symbols as a test for ld -r is just ugly: the linker already
knows if ld -r is underway and can just tell us.  So add a new linker
flag CTF_LINK_NO_FILTER_REPORTED_SYMS that is set to stop the linker
filtering the symbols in the symtypetab sections using the set that the
linker has reported: use the presence or absence of this flag to
determine whether to emit unindexed symtabs: we only remove entries from
the variable section when filtering symbols, and we only remove them if
they are in the reported symbol set, fixing the case where no symbols
are reported by the linker at all.

(The negative sense of the new CTF_LINK flag is intentional: the common
case, both for ld and for simple tools that want to do a ctf_link with
no ELF symbol table in sight, is probably to filter out symbols that no
linker has reported: i.e., for the simple tools, all of them.)

There's another wrinkle, though.  It is quite possible for a non-linker
to add symbols to a dict via ctf_add_*_sym and then write it out via the
ctf_write APIs: perhaps it's preparing a dict for a later linker
invocation.  Right now this would not lead to anything terribly
meaningful happening: ctf_serialize just assumes it was called via
ctf_link if symbols are present.  So add an (internal-to-libctf) flag
that indicates that a writeout is happening via ctf_link_write, and set
it there (propagating it to child dicts as needed).  ctf_serialize can
then spot when it is not being called by a linker, and arrange to always
write out an indexed, sorted symtypetab for fastest possible future
symbol lookup by name in that case.  (The writeouts done by ld -r are
unsorted, because the only thing likely to use those symtabs is the
linker, which doesn't benefit from symtypetab sorting.)

Tests added for all three linking cases (ld -r, ld -shared, ld), with a
bit of testsuite framework enhancement to stop it unconditionally
linking the CTF to be checked by the lookup program with -shared, so
tests can now examine CTF linked with -r or indeed with no flags at all,
though the output filename is still foo.so even in this case.

Another test added for the non-linker case that endeavours to determine
whether the symtypetab is sorted by examining the order of entries
returned from ctf_symbol_next: nobody outside libctf should rely on
this ordering, but this test is not outside libctf :)

c59e30ed17 libctf: new testsuite
This introduces a new lookup testsuite under libctf, which operates by
compiling (with libtool) a "lookup" .c file that uses libctf to analyze
some other program, then compiling some number of test object files with
CTF and optionally linking them together and running the lookup program
on the test object files (or linked test binary), before diffing the
result much as run_dump_test does.

This lets us test the portions of libctf that are not previously
testable, notably the portions that do lookup on linked output and
that create dynamic dictionaries and then do lookup on them before
writing them out, something that is not tested by the ld-ctf testsuite
because the linker never does this.

A couple of simple tests are added: one testing the functionality of
enum lookups, and one testing that the recently-added commit adding
extra paranoia to incomplete type handling doesn't break linking and
that the result of the link is an (otherwise-impossible) array of
forward type in the shared CTF dict.
