Evaluate __start_* and __stop_* symbol PROVIDE expressions early
Makes these symbols defined before bfd_elf_size_dynamic_sections, to avoid horrible hacks elsewhere. The exp_fold_tree undefweak change is necessary to define undefweak symbols early too. The comment was wrong. PROVIDE in fact defines undefweak symbols, via bfd_elf_record_link_assignment. PR ld/19175 * ldlang.c (lang_insert_orphan): Evaluate __start_* and __stop_* symbol PROVIDE expressions. * ldexp.c (exp_fold_tree_1 <etree_provide>): Define undefweak references.
