Enough users expect the namespace starting with underscore to be safe
for symbols. Change our private namespace from __foo__ to
__?foo?__. Use %defalias to provide backwards compatiblity (by using
%defalias instead of %define, we handle the case properly where the
user changes the value.)
Add a preprocessor directive:
%aliases off
... to disable all smacro aliases and thereby making the namespace
clean.
Finally, fix infinite recursion when seeing %? or %?? due to
paste_tokens(). If we don't paste anything, the expansion is done.

Implement the MachO do_dead_strip directive, which sets a flag on the
corresponding section. This as well as subsections_by_symbols are
reimplemented as pragmas; if someone uses the predefined macro they
still get the expected behavior.
However, this allows someone to write:
%pragma macho subsections_by_symbols
... and have it ignored if compiling for, say, ELF.
Also, implement the following section attributes:
zerofill, no_dead_strip, live_support, strip_static_syms

The "subsection_via_symbols" directive simply sets a flag in the
Mach-O file header.

*To the best of my knowledge*, we now have authorization from everyone
who has significantly contributed to NASM in the past. As such,
change the license to the 2-clause BSD license.

Somehow the win32 and win64 aliases got listed on Mach-O, not on
COFF. This doesn't have any effect on the current code, but might in
the future. Correct.

Move the handling of "extra" macros (i.e. output format macros) into
the macros.pl mechanism. This allows us to change the format of the
internal macro store in the future - e.g. to a single byte store
without redundant pointers.
Also, stop using indicies into a long array when there is no good
reason to not just use different arrays.
