/* CTF linking consists of adding CTF archives full of content to be merged into

   ctf_link_add_ctf.  Once this is done, a call to ctf_link will merge the type
   tables together, generating new CTF files as needed, with this one as a
   parent, to contain types from the inputs which conflict.  ctf_link_add_strtab
   takes a callback which provides string/offset pairs to be added to the
   external symbol table and deduplicated from all CTF string tables in the
   output link; ctf_link_shuffle_syms takes a callback which provides symtab
   entries in ascending order, and shuffles the function and data sections to
   match; and ctf_link_write emits a CTF file (if there are no conflicts
   requiring per-compilation-unit sub-CTF files) or CTF archives (otherwise) and
