x86: Support Intel Shadow Stack with SHSTK property
To support Intel Shadow Stack (SHSTK) in Intel Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET) instructions: https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/managed/4d/2a/control-flow-enforcement-technology-preview.pdf #define GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_1_SHSTK (1U << 1) is added to GNU program properties to indicate that all executable sections are compatible with SHSTK where return address popped from shadow stack always matches return address popped from normal stack. GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_1_SHSTK is set on output only if it is set on all relocatable inputs. bfd/ * elf32-i386.c (elf_i386_merge_gnu_properties): If info->shstk is set, turn on GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_1_SHSTK.
