Orphan output section with multiple input sections

If given input sections with differing flags, we'd like to place the
section according to the final output section flags.

bfd/
	PR ld/19162
	* elflink.c (_bfd_elf_gc_mark_reloc): Move code iterating over
	linker input bfds..
	* section.c (bfd_get_next_section_by_name): ..to here.  Add ibfd param.
	(bfd_get_linker_section): Adjust bfd_get_next_section_by_name call.
	* tekhex.c (first_phase): Likewise.
	* elflink.c (bfd_elf_gc_sections): Likewise.
	* bfd-in2.h: Regenerate.
ld/
	PR ld/19162
	* emultempl/elf32.em (gld${EMULATION_NAME}_place_orphan): Check flags
	before calling _bfd_elf_match_sections_by_type.  Merge flags for
	any other input sections that might match a new output section to
	decide placement.
