When set to false, the -dolinkobj flag instructs the compiler
not to generate or emit linker information.

This is handy when you need the compiler's export data,
e.g. for use with go/importer,
but you want to avoid the cost of full compilation.

This must be used with care, since the resulting
files are unusable for linking.

This CL interacts with #18369,
where adding gcflags and ldflags to buildid has been mooted.
On the one hand, adding gcflags would make safe use of this
flag easier, since if the full object files were needed,
a simple 'go install' would fix it.
On the other hand, this would mean that
'go install -gcflags=-dolinkobj=false' would rebuild the object files,
although any existing object files would probably suffice.

Fix the encoding of the SH field for rldimi.

The SH field of rldimi is 6-bit wide and it is not contiguous in the instruction.
Bits 0-4 are placed in bit fields 16-20 in the instruction, while bit 5 is
placed in bit field 30. The current implementation does not consider this and,
therefore, any SH field between 32 and 63 are encoded wrongly in the instruciton.

Keith pointed out that these rules should zero extend during the review
of CL 36845. In practice the generic rules are responsible for eliminating
most load-hit-stores and they do not have this problem. When the s390x
rules are triggered any cast following the elided load-hit-store is
kept because of the sequence the rules are applied in (i.e. the load is
removed before the zero extension gets a chance to be merged into the load).
It is therefore not clear that this issue results in any functional bugs.

This CL includes a test, but it only tests the generic rules currently.

Args may be not at 8-byte aligned offset to SP. When the stack
frame is large, folding the offset of args may cause large
unaligned offsets that does not fit in a machine instruction on
ARM64. Therefore disable folding offsets for args.

This has small performance impact (see below). A better fix would
be letting the assembler backend fix up the offset by loading it
into a register if it doesn't fit into an instruction. And the
compiler can simply generate large load/stores with offset. Since
in most of the cases the offset is aligned or the stack frame is
small, it can fit in an instruction and no fixup is needed. But
this is too complicated for Go 1.8.

For compatibility with math/bits uint operations.

When math/big was written originally, the Go compiler used 32bit
int/uint values even on a 64bit machine. uintptr was the type that
represented the machine register size. Now, the int/uint types are
sized to the native machine register size, so they are the natural
machine Word type.

On most machines, the size of int/uint correspond to the size of
uintptr. On platforms where uint and uintptr have different sizes,
this change may lead to performance differences (e.g., amd64p32).

dwarf writing code assumes that dwarf sections follow
.data and .bss, not .ctors. Make pe section writing code
match that assumption.

For #10776.

The symbols get in a way when using external linker. They are
not associated with a section. And linker fails when
generating relocations for them.

__image_base__ and _image_base__ have been added long time ago.
I do not think they are needed anymore. If I delete them, all
tests still PASS. I tried going back to the commit that added
them to see if I can reproduce original error, but I cannot
build it. I don't have hg version of go repo, and my gcc is
complaining about cc source code.

I wasted too much time with this, so I decided to leave them only
for internal linker. That is what they were originally added for.

For #10776.

dwarf relocations refer to dwarf section symbols, so dwarf
section symbols must be present in pe symbol table before we
write dwarf relocations.

.ctors pe section already refer to .text symbol.

Write all pe section name symbols into symbol table, so we
can use them whenever we need them.

This CL also simplified some code.

Introduce a slice that keeps long pe section names as we add them.
It will be used later to output pe symbol table and dwarf relocations.

This is what gcc does when it generates object files.
And pecoff.doc says: "for simplicity, compilers should
 set this to zero". It is easier to count everything,
when it starts from 0. Make go linker do the same.
