PR26978, Inconsistency for strong foo@v1 and weak foo@@v1
Prior to this patch
ld -shared --version-script=pr26979.ver pr26978a.o pr26978b.o
results in
ld: pr26978b.o: in function `foo_v1':
(.text+0x0): multiple definition of `foo@v1'
ld: pr26978b.o:(*IND*+0x0): multiple definition of `foo'
while
ld -shared --version-script=pr26979.ver pr26978b.o pr26978a.o
results in no error, but some odd dynamic symbols.
... 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 7 foo@v1
... 0 NOTYPE WEAK DEFAULT 7 foo@@v1
When linking an undecorated reference to foo against such a shared
library, ld complains about multiple definitions of foo@v1 while gold
creates a dynamic reference to foo@v1. That results in foo@v1 being
used at runtime.
While we could error in both cases, it is reasonable to say foo@v1 and
foo@@v1 are in fact the same symbol. (Same name, same version. The
only real difference is that foo@@v1 satisfies a reference to plain
foo, while foo@v1 does not.) Just as merging a weak undecorated sym
with a strong sym results in the strong sym prevailing, so should the
strong foo@v1 prevail. And since there is a definition that satisfies
plain foo, the foo@@v1 variety of dynamic symbol should be emitted at
the foo@v1 value. That makes the testcase that currently links
continue to produce a shared library, and that shared library can now
be used by both ld and gold with the same runtime behaviour as when
using gold with the odd dynamic symbol library.

* elflink.c (_bfd_elf_add_default_symbol): Handle the case where
a new weak sym@@ver should be overridden by an existing sym@ver.
(elf_link_add_object_symbols): Don't _bfd_elf_add_default_symbol
for a new weak sym@ver when sym@@ver already exists.
* linker.c (link_action): Choose MIND for previous indirect,
current def, rather than MDEF.
(_bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol <MIND>): Handle redefinition of
weak indirect symbol.
