x86: allow @size to also (sensibly) apply to sections
So far this (counter-intuitively) produced the size as recorded in the (section) symbol. Obtain the section's size instead for section symbols. (I wonder whether STT_SECTION symbols couldn't properly hold the section's size in their st_size field, which in turn would likely mean the internal symbol would also have its size properly updated.) Note that this is not the same as the .sizeof.() pseudo-operator: @size yields the local file's contribution to a section, while .sizeof.() gets resolved by the linker to produce the final full section's size. As to the 3rd each of the expected output lines in the changed testcase: I can't find justification for zzz to come after yyy despite them being defined in the opposite order in source. Therefore I think it's better to permit both possible outcomes.
