dwarf2: Pad size of .debug_line section.
As all dwarf debug information is organized in octets, the size of all dwarf sections must be aligned to OCTETS_PER_BYTE. Most DWARF sections meet this requirement, only the .debug_line section can reach an arbitrary octet size. In order to align the size to a multiple of OCTETS_PER_BYTE, the section is padded with "nop" statements at the end. * dwarf2dbg.c (out_debug_line): Pad size of .debug_line section.
