For sections with different virtual and physical addresses, alignment and
placement in the output binary should be based on the physical address.
Ran into this problem with a bare metal ARM project where llvm-objcopy added a
lot of zero-padding before the .data section that had differing addresses. GNU
objcopy did not add the padding, and after this fix, neither does llvm-objcopy.
Update a test case so a section has different physical and virtual addresses.

This change adds support in llvm-objcopy for GNU objcopy's --localize-hidden
option. This option changes every hidden or internal symbol into a local symbol.

I have no clue how this was missed when symbol table support was added. This

This change adds support for the --only-keep option and the -j alias as well.
A common use case for these being used together is to dump a specific section's
data. Additionally the --keep option is added (GNU objcopy doesn't have this)
to avoid removing a bunch of things. This allows people to err on the side of
stripping aggressively and then to keep the specific bits that they need for
their application.

GNU's --strip-all doesn't strip as aggressively as it could in general.
Currently llvm-objcopy copies the exact behavoir of GNU's --strip-all.
eu-strip is used as a drop in replacement for GNU strip/objcopy in many many
places without issue. eu-strip removes non-allocated sections and keeps
.gnu.warning* sections. Because --strip-all will likely be the most widely
used stripping option we should make --strip-all as aggressive as it can safely
be. Since we have evidence from eu-strip that this is a safe option we should
allow it. For those that might still have an issue afterwards I've added
--strip-all-gnu as an exact drop in replacement for GNU's --strip-all as well.

The original -O binary implementation just copied segment data from the
object and dumped it into a file. This doesn't take into account any
operations performed on objects such as section removal. GNU objcopy has
some specific behavior that we'd also like to respect. For instance
using -O binary and -j <some_section> will dump <some_section> to a
file. This change implements GNU objcopy style -O binary to as close of
an approximation as I can determine.

Many projects use this option. There are two ways to use it. You can
either a) Just use --strip-debug and keep the old file with debug
content or b) you can use --strip-debug, --only-keep-debug, and
--add-gnu-debuglink all in conjunction to create two separate files, the
stripped file and the debug file. --only-keep-debug is more complicated
than --strip-debug because it keeps the section headers without keeping
section contents. That's not really supported by llvm-objcopy at the
moment but I plan on adding it. So this change just supports a) and
options to support b) will come soon.

This change adds a slightly less extreme form of stripping. It should
remove any section that starts with ".debug" and should remove any
symbol table or relocations. In general this strips out most of the
stuff you don't need to execute but leaves a number of things around.
This behavior has been designed to be compatible with GNU strip/objcopy
--strip-all so that anywhere you currently use --strip-all you should be
able to use llvm-objcopy as a drop in replacement.

Just aligning segment offsets to segment alignment is incorrect and also
wastes more space than is needed. The requirement is that p_offset ==
p_addr modulo p_align *not* that p_offset == 0 modulo p_align. Generally
speaking we've been using p_addr == 0 modulo p_align. In fact yaml2obj
can't even produce a valid situation which causes llvm-objcopy to
produce incorrect results because alignment and offset were both
inherited from the sections the program header covers. This change fixes
this bad behavior in llvm-objcopy.

The LLVM tools can be used as a replacement for binutils, in which case
it's convenient to create symlinks with the binutils names. Add support
for these symlinks in the build system. As with any other llvm tool
symlinks, the user can limit the installed symlinks by only adding the
desired ones to `LLVM_TOOLCHAIN_TOOLS`.

There's a lot of misuse of Twine scattered around LLVM. This
ranges in severity from benign (returning a Twine from a function
by value that is just a string literal) to pretty sketchy (storing
a Twine by value in a class). While there are some uses for
copying Twines, most of the very compelling ones are confined
to the Twine class implementation itself, and other uses are
either dubious or easily worked around.
This patch makes Twine's copy constructor private, and fixes up
all callsites.

ubsan caught an issue I made where I was converting a null pointer to a
reference.
elf utils implements a particularly extreme form of stripping that I'd
like to support. eu-strip has an option called "strip-sections" that
removes all section headers and leaves only program headers and the
segment data. I have implemented this option partly as a test but mainly
because in Fuchsia we would like to use this option to minimize the size
of our executables. The other strip options that are on my list include
--strip-all and --strip-debug. This is a preliminary implementation that
I'd like to start using in Fuchsia builds if possible. This change
implements such a stripping option for llvm-objcopy

If a Section had Type SHT_STRTAB (which could happen if you had a
.dynstr section) it was possible to cast Section to StringTableSection
and get away with any operation that was supported by SectionBase
without it being noticed. This change makes this bug easier to notice
and fixes it where it occurred. It also made me realize that there was
some duplication of efforts in the loop that calls ::initialize. These
issues are all fixed by this change.

Somehow a few massive errors slipped though the cracks of testing.
1. The code in Segment::finalize was left over from the old layout
algorithm. In certain situations this would cause very strange issues
with segment layout. For instance in the shift-segments.test case it
would cause the second segment to have the same offset as the first.
2. In debugging this I discovered another issue. Namely section alignment
was not being computed based on Section->Align but instead
Section->Offset which is bizarre and makes no sense. I have no clue how
it worked in the first place. This issue is also fixed
3. Fixing #2 exposed a bug where things were not being written past the end
of the file that technically should have been. This was because in
certain cases (like overlapping-segments) the end of the file wouldn't
always be bumped if the offset could be chosen relative to an existing
segment that already had it's offset chosen. For fully nested segments
this is fine but for overlapping segments this leaves the end of the
file short. So I changed how the offset is bumped when looping though
segments.

This change refactors some of the code to allow for some code
deduplication in later diffs as well as just to make adding a new
section type more self contained to the class itself. The idea for this
