Rewrite __start and __stop symbol handling
This arranges for __start and __stop symbols to be defined before garbage collection, for all target formats. That should allow the COFF and PE --gc-sections to keep a singleton orphan input section, a feature lost by 2017-06-13 commit cbd0eecf26. The fancier ELF treatment of keeping all input sections associated with a __start or __stop symbol, from 2015-10-23 commit 1cce69b9dc, is retained. .startof. and .sizeof. symbols are deliberately not defined before garbage collection, so these won't affect garbage collection of sections. The patch also ensures __start, __stop, .startof. and .sizeof. symbols are defined before target size_dynamic_sections is called, albeit with a preliminary value, so that target code doesn't need to cope with a symbol changing from undefined at size_dynamic_sections to defined at relocate_section. Also, a number of problems with the testcases have been fixed.
