ld: Create a new LOAD segment for separate code segment

When generating separate code LOAD segment, create a new LOAD segment
if the previous section contains text and the current section doesn't
or vice versa:

Elf file type is DYN (Shared object file)
Entry point 0x200020
There are 7 program headers, starting at offset 52

Program Headers:
  Type           Offset   VirtAddr   PhysAddr   FileSiz MemSiz  Flg Align
  LOAD           0x000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x00200 0x00200 R   0x200000

 Section to Segment mapping:
  Segment Sections...
   00     .hash .gnu.hash .dynsym .dynstr .rela.plt
   01     .plt .text
   02     .rodata .eh_frame
   03     .dynamic .got.plt
   04     .dynamic
   05
   06     .dynamic

to prevent fetching or executing data in code pages as instructions.

Also don't put a writable section in a read-only segment if there is a
RELRO segment.

Since code segment is aligned and padded to the maximum page size on
disk, the minimum file size is bigger than the maximum page size which
is 2MB (0x200000):

"-z max-page-size=0x1000" can be used to reduce the maximum page size to
4KB (0x1000):

	PR ld/22393
	* elf.c (_bfd_elf_map_sections_to_segments): When generating
	separate code and read-only data LOAD segments, create a new
	LOAD segment if the previous section contains text and the
	current section doesn't or vice versa.  Don't put a writable
	section in a read-only segment if there is a RELRO segment.
