Add note merging to strip and add code to merge stack size notes.
* objcopy.c: Add --no-merge-notes option to disable note merging. Add --[no-]merge-notes option to strip, and enable it by default. (num_bytes): New function. (merge_gnu_build_notes): Add code to merge stack size notes. * binutils.texi: Update strip and objcopy documentation. * readelf.c (print_gnu_build_attribute_name): Use defined constants for note types.
