elf: Set p_align to the minimum page size if possible
Currently, on 32-bit and 64-bit ARM, it seems that ld generates p_align
values of 0x10000 even if no section alignment is greater than 0x1000.
The issue is more general and probably affects other targets with multiple
page sizes.
While file layout absolutely must take 64K page size into account, that
does not have to be reflected in the p_align value. If running on a 64K
kernel, the file will be loaded at a 64K page boundary by necessity. On
a 4K kernel, 64K alignment is not needed.
The glibc loader has been fixed to honor p_align:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28676
similar to kernel:

fs/binfmt_elf: use PT_LOAD p_align values for suitable start address
This means that on 4K kernels, we will start to do extra work for 64K
p_align, but this pointless for pretty much all binaries (whose section
alignment rarely exceeds 16).
The minimum page size is used, instead of the maximum section alignment
due to this glibc bug:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28688
It has been fixed in glibc 2.35. But linker output must work on existing
glibc binaries.
1. Set p_align to the minimum page size while laying out segments aligning
to the maximum page size or section alignment. The run-time loader can
align segments to the minimum page size or above, depending on system page
size.
2. If -z max-page-size=NNN is used, p_align will be set to the maximum
page size or the largest section alignment.
3. If a section requires alignment higher than the minimum page size,
don't set p_align to the minimum page size.
4. If a section requires alignment higher than the maximum page size,
set p_align to the section alignment.
5. For objcopy, when the minimum page size != the maximum page size,
p_align may be set to the minimum page size while segments are aligned
to the maximum page size. In this case, the input p_align will be
ignored and the maximum page size will be used to align the ouput
segments.
6. Update linker to disallow the common page size > the maximum page size.
7. Update linker to avoid the common page size > the maximum page size.
8. Adjust pru_irq_map-1.d to expect p_align == sh_addralign:

To enable this linker optimization, the backend should define ELF_P_ALIGN
to ELF_MINPAGESIZE.
