compress .gnu.debuglto_.debug_* sections if requested
Right now, when using LTO, the intermediate object files do contain debug info in sections starting with .gnu.debuglto_ prefix and are not compressed when --compress-debug-sections is used. It's a mistake and we can save quite some disk space. The following example comes from tramp3d when the corresponding LTO sections are compressed with zlib: $ bloaty tramp3d-v4-v2.o -- tramp3d-v4.o FILE SIZE VM SIZE -------------- -------------- +83% +10 [ = ] 0 [Unmapped] -68.0% -441 [ = ] 0 .gnu.debuglto_.debug_line -52.3% -759 [ = ] 0 .gnu.debuglto_.debug_line_str -62.4% -3.24Ki [ = ] 0 .gnu.debuglto_.debug_abbrev -64.8% -1.12Mi [ = ] 0 .gnu.debuglto_.debug_info -88.8% -4.58Mi [ = ] 0 .gnu.debuglto_.debug_str -27.7% -5.70Mi [ = ] 0 TOTAL bfd/ChangeLog: * elf.c (_bfd_elf_make_section_from_shdr): Compress all debug info sections. gas/ChangeLog: * write.c (compress_debug): Compress also ".gnu.debuglto_.debug_" if the compression algorithm is different from zlib-gnu.
