Support for dedicated ARM stub section with padding

2016-05-23  Thomas Preud'homme  <thomas.preudhomme@arm.com>

bfd/
	* elf32-arm.c (arm_dedicated_stub_section_padding): New function.
	(elf32_arm_size_stubs): Declare stub_type in a more outer scope and
	account for padding for stub section requiring one.
	(elf32_arm_build_stubs): Add comment to stress the importance of
	zeroing veneer section content.
