Fix case where IR file provides symbol visibility but replacement file does not.
In PR 22868, two IR files provide conflicting visibility for a symbol. When a def with PROTECTED visibility is seen after a def with DEFAULT visibility, gold does not override the visibility. Later, if the replacement object define the symbol with DEFAULT visibility, the symbol remains DEFAULT. This was caused by a recent change to allow multiply-defined absolute symbols, combined with the fact that the plugin framework was using SHN_ABS as the section index for placeholder symbols. The solution is to use a real (but arbitrary) section index. gold/ PR gold/22868 * plugin.cc (Sized_pluginobj::do_add_symbols): Use a real section index instead of SHN_ABS for defined symbols. * testsuite/Makefile.am (plugin_pr22868): New test case. * testsuite/Makefile.in: Regenerate * testsuite/plugin_pr22868.sh: New test script. * testsuite/plugin_pr22868_a.c: New source file. * testsuite/plugin_pr22868_b.c: New source file.
