ELF: Add support for unique section ID to assembler
Clang's integrated assembler supports multiple section with the same
name:
.section .text,"ax",@progbits,unique,1
nop
.section .text,"ax",@progbits,unique,2
nop
"unique,N" assigns the number, N, as the section ID, to a section. The
valid values of the section ID are between 0 and 4294967295. It can be
used to distinguish different sections with the same section name.
This is useful with -fno-unique-section-names -ffunction-sections.
-ffunction-sections by default generates .text.foo, .text.bar, etc.
Using the same string can save lots of space in .strtab.
This patch adds section_id to bfd_section and reuses the linker
internal bit in BFD section flags, SEC_LINKER_CREATED, for assmebler
internal use to mark valid section_id. It also updates objdump to
compare section pointers if 2 sections comes from the same file since
2 different sections can have the same section name.
