PR26314, Linking LTO objects with symbols from static and shared libraries

gcc -O2 -g -o ar -Wl,--as-needed arparse.o arlex.o ar.o not-ranlib.o arsup.o rename.o binemul.o emul_vanilla.o bucomm.o version.o filemode.o libbfd-2.35-3.fc33.so libiberty.a -Wl,-R,.

All of the above .o files are lto, leading to libbfd-2.35-3.fc33.so
not being found needed when loading the IR objects.  That's problem
number one:  We exclude IR references when deciding a shared library
is needed.  See PR15146.  Thus none of the libbfd.so symbols are
loaded before libiberty.a is scanned, and libbfd.so contains copies of
libiberty.a functions.  We ought to be using the libbfd.so copies
rather than extracting them from the archive (an object is extracted
even to satisfy IR symbols).  After lto recompilation, libbfd.so is of
course found to be needed and loaded.  But that causes more problems.
The lto recompilation didn't see symbol references from libbfd.so and
variables like _xexit_cleanup are made local in the recompiled
objects.  Oops, two copies of them.  Finally, those silly undefined
symbols in the lto output debug files, combined with definitions in
both libbfd.so and IR objects result in IR symbols being made
dynamic.

The main fix here is to revert the PR15146 change to
elf_link_add_object_symbols.

	PR 26314
	* elflink.c (bfd_elf_link_record_dynamic_symbol): Don't allow
	IR symbols to become dynamic.
	(elf_link_add_object_symbols): Don't exclude IR symbols when
	deciding whether an as-needed shared library is needed.
