Using notes_calloc means all of the string hash table memory should
now be freed before gas exits, even though htab_delete isn't called.
This also means that the hash table free_f and del_f must be NULL,
because freeing notes obstack memory results in all more recently
allocated notes memory being freed too. So hash table resizing won't
free any memory, and will be a little faster. Also, htab_delete won't
do anything (and be quick about it).
Since htab_traverse can also resize hash tables (to make another
traversal faster if the table is largely empty), stop that happening
when only one traversal is done.

When handling section names in quotes obj_elf_section_name calls
demand_copy_C_string, which puts the name on the gas notes obstack.
Such strings aren't usually freed, since obstack_free frees all more
recently allocated objects as well as its arg. When handling
non-quoted names, obj_elf_section_name mallocs the name. Due to the
mix of allocation strategies it isn't possible for callers to free
names, if that was desirable. Partially fix this by always creating
names on the obstack, which is more efficient anyway. (You still
can't obstack_free on error paths due to the xtensa
tc_canonicalize_section_name.) Also remove a couple of cases where
the name is dup'd for no good reason as far as I know.

These were used originally to represent "# <line> <file>" constructs
inserted by (typically) compilers when pre-processing. Quite some time
ago they were replaced by .linefile though. Since the original
directives were never documented, we ought to be able to remove support
for them. As a result in a number of case function parameter aren't used
anymore and can hence be dropped.

```
bar1's size is 2 while bar2, bar3, bar4's is 1. The behavior of bar1 makes sense
(generally directives on the new symbol should win) and is relied upon by glibc
stdio-common/errlist.c:
```
.hidden _sys_errlist_internal
.globl _sys_errlist_internal
.type _sys_errlist_internal, @object
.size _sys_errlist_internal, 1072
_sys_errlist_internal:
.globl __GLIBC_2_1_sys_errlist
.set __GLIBC_2_1_sys_errlist, _sys_errlist_internal
.type __GLIBC_2_1_sys_errlist, %object
.size __GLIBC_2_1_sys_errlist, 125 * (64 / 8)
// glibc expects that .size __GLIBC_2_1_sys_errlist, 125 * (64 / 8) wins.
```
The behavior of bar2/bar3/bar4 seems brittle. To avoid the reordering of the two
code blocks which will result in the bar3 situation, glibc compiles errlist.c
with gcc -fno-toplevel-reorder (previously -fno-unit-at-a-time).
To fix the inconsistency and improve robustness, make bar2/bar3/bar4 match bar1,
removing the directive order sensitivity.
There is a pity that `.size dest, 0` is indistinguishable from the case where
dest is unset, but the compromise seems fine.

The SHF_GNU_RETAIN section flag is an extension to the GNU ELF OSABI.
It is defined as follows:
=========================================================
Section Attribute Flags
+-------------------------------------+
| Name | Value |
+-------------------------------------+
| SHF_GNU_RETAIN | 0x200000 (1 << 21) |
+-------------------------------------+
SHF_GNU_RETAIN
The link editor should not garbage collect the section.
=========================================================
The .section directive accepts the "R" flag, which indicates
SHF_GNU_RETAIN should be applied to the section.
There is not a direct mapping of SHF_GNU_RETAIN to the BFD
section flag SEC_KEEP. Keeping these flags distinct allows
SHF_GNU_RETAIN sections to be explicitly removed by placing them in
/DISCARD/.

This patch fixes an internal error in GAS when defining a section using
a symbol that has already been named but not defined. For a minimal
reproducer, try the following input:
a=b
.sect a
The problem is that obj_elf_change_section() happily reuses the symbol
"a" created by equals() without clearing the sy_value field: prior to
this patch, it just set bsym. This caused a problem when attempting to
resolve the section symbol, since resolve_symbol_value() ended up
resolving the symbol as if it were the original symbol created by
equals(), which ends up leaving the section symbol in the undefined
section instead of in section a, hence the call to abort() in
S_SET_SEGMENT().

sections is set after all sections, except for backend specific ones,
have been garbage collected.

Clang's integrated assembler supports multiple section with the same
name:
.section .text,"ax",@progbits,unique,1
nop
.section .text,"ax",@progbits,unique,2
nop
"unique,N" assigns the number, N, as the section ID, to a section. The
valid values of the section ID are between 0 and 4294967295. It can be
used to distinguish different sections with the same section name.
This is useful with -fno-unique-section-names -ffunction-sections.
-ffunction-sections by default generates .text.foo, .text.bar, etc.
Using the same string can save lots of space in .strtab.
This patch adds section_id to bfd_section and reuses the linker
internal bit in BFD section flags, SEC_LINKER_CREATED, for assmebler
internal use to mark valid section_id. It also updates objdump to
compare section pointers if 2 sections comes from the same file since
2 different sections can have the same section name.

When SHF_GNU_MBIND was added in the SHF_LOOS to SHF_HIOS range, it
should have required ELFOSABI_GNU since these flags are already in use
by other OSes. HPUX SHF_HP_TLS in fact has the same value. That
means no place in binutils should test SHF_GNU_MBIND without first
checking OSABI, and SHF_GNU_MBIND should not be set without also
setting OSABI. At least, that's the ideal, but the patch accepts
SHF_GNU_MBIND on ELFOSABI_NONE object files since gas didn't always
set OSABI. However, to reinforce the fact that SHF_GNU_MBIND isn't
proper without a non-zero OSABI, readelf will display the flag as
LOOS+0 if OSABI isn't set.
The clash with SHF_HP_TLS means that hppa64-linux either has that flag
on .tbss sections or supports GNU_MBIND, not both. (hppa64-linux
users, if there are any, may have noticed that GNU ld since 2017
mysteriously aligned their .tbss sections to a 4k boundary. That was
one consequence of SHF_HP_TLS being blindly interpreted as
SHF_GNU_MBIND.) Since it seems that binutils, gdb, gcc, glibc, and
the linux kernel don't care about SHF_HP_TLS I took that flag out of
.tbss for hppa64-linux.

git commit f2d4ba38f5 caused many failures for mips-sgi-irix targets,
and added a new test that failed for aarch64, nds32, and rl78.
The mips failures are due to BSF_OBJECT being set in many cases for
symbols by the mips .global/.globl directive. This patch removes that
code and instead sets BSF_OBJECT in a target frob_symbol function,
also moving the mips hacks in elf_frob_symbol to the new function.
Note that common symbols are handled fine in elf.c:swap_out_syms
without needing to set BSF_OBJECT, so that old code can disappear.

Recently a patch was submitted for a Xen Project test harness binary to
override the compiler specified @object to @func (see [1]). In a reply I
suggested we shouldn't make ourselves dependent on currently unspecified
behavior of gas here: It accumulates all requests, and then
bfd/elf.c:swap_out_syms(), in an apparently ad hoc manner, prioritizes
certain flags over others.
Make the behavior predictable: Generally the last .type is what counts.
Exceptions are directives which set multiple bits (TLS, IFUNC, and
UNIQUE): Subsequent directives requesting just the more generic bit
(i.e. FUNC following IFUNC) won't clear the more specific one. Warn
about incompatible changes, except from/to STT_NOTYPE.
Also add a new target hook, which hppa wants to use right away afaict.
In the course of adding the warning I ran into two ld testsuite
failures. I can only assume that it was a copy-and-paste mistake that
lead to the same symbol having its type set twice.
