_bfd_elf_assign_file_positions_for_non_load will set the sh_size
field for .shstrtab section. There is need to initialize it in
_bfd_elf_compute_section_file_positions.
* elf.c (_bfd_elf_compute_section_file_positions): Don't
initialize sh_size for .shstrtab here.
This patch uses ELF strtab with GC and suffix merging support to create
ELF .strtab section. There is some small memory overhead to use ELF
strtab:

[32] .strtab STRTAB 0+ 3beff8 0041d8 00 0 0 1
It reduces the .strtab size by 350 bytes, about 2%
Saving on libc.so from glibc is much more since libc.so has many alias
symbols with the same suffix. For x32 glibc,
[82] .strtab STRTAB 0+ 81b348 0159e7 00 0 0 1
vs
[82] .strtab STRTAB 0+ 81b8bc 019e72 00 0 0 1
It reduces the .strtab size by 17547 bytes, about 16%.

When converting "mov foo@GOTPCREL(%rip), %reg" to "lea foo(%rip), %reg"
with R_X86_64_PC32 relocation, it may overflow if the target section
is more than 2GB away. This patch estimates distance between mov
instruction and the target section. We convert R_X86_64_GOTPCREL to
R_X86_64_PC32 only if their distance is less than 2GB.

This promotes BFD's struct elf_build_id to the generic struct bfd_build_id,
populated when an ELF or PE BFD is read.
gdb is updated to use that, and to use the build-id to find symbols for PE files
also.
There is currently no generic way to extract the build-id from an object file,
perhaps an option to objdump to do this might make sense?
On x86_64-pc-cygwin, gdb's sepdebug.exp changes:
-# of unsupported tests 1
+# of expected passes 90
I don't seem to get consistent testsuite runs on i686-linux-gnu, but there
don't appear to be any regressions.

When building a shared lib from non-PIC objects, we'll get dynamic
text relocations. These need to move with any insns we move.
Otherwise the dynamic reloc will modify the branch, resulting in
crashes and other unpleasant behaviour.
Also, ld -r --ppc476-workaround used with sufficiently aligned PIC
objects needs a fix for emitted REL16 relocs.
