Redo gas local symbol support
gas handles local symbols specially in order to save memory, but the implementation using two separate hash tables is inefficient, particularly the scheme of duplicating a struct local_symbol when it needs to be converted to a full struct symbol. Also, updating symbol pointers with LOCAL_SYMBOL_CHECK is horrible and has led to some hard to find bugs. This changes the implementation to use a single hash table and avoids another copy of the symbol name in symbol_entry_t. When converting local symbols the struct local_symbol memory is reused. Not only does that save memory, but there is no need to twiddle symbol pointers with LOCAL_SYMBOL_CHECK. Assembling gcc-10 -g -Og gold/powerpc.cc output shows the following: old: symbol table hash statistics: 1371192 searches 1290398 collisions 143585 elements 262139 table size mini local symbol table hash statistics: 2966204 searches 2707489 collisions 523533 elements 1048573 table size 523533 mini local symbols created, 140453 converted new: symbol table hash statistics: 2828883 searches 2453138 collisions 526665 elements 1048573 table size 523533 mini local symbols created, 140453 converted * symbols.c (struct local_symbol): Add "hash" entry.
