For the new object file format, don't tag individual symbols with a
"shared" flag, since that characteristic is better off as an attribute
of the containing object file as opposed to the individual symbol. Add
a new flags field in the object file header and put a bit in the flags
if the shared flags is in effect during compilation.

Per Jeremy's comment in CL 199643. This makes the code read
better.

Use the auxiliary symbol mechanism to connect the text symbol and
its associated DWARF symbols. This way, the linker can track the
DWARF symbols from the text symbol, without looking up special
names.
Currently, in the linker this is only used in the deadcode pass
to track which DWARF symbols are used and need to load. Later
passes still use name lookup for now.

In CL 196030 we decided to combine the imported package list
(Autolib) and referenced package list (PkgIdx, or Pkglist).
However, in some cases the Autolib list may contain file name,
instead of package path, e.g.
https://go.googlesource.com/go/+/refs/heads/dev.link/src/cmd/compile/internal/gc/main.go#1181
And the linker needs that to locate the file. This mostly happens
with direct invocation of the compiler and linker (i.e., not
through "go build").
Instead of letting the linker make guess of the file name based
on the package path, make Autolib a separate list.

When reflect.Type.Method is called, all exported methods from a
reachable type need to be conservatively live. When such a
function is called, the compiler sets an attribute to the
function, and the linker needs to check that attribute. Implement
this in the index-based deadcode pass.
Unify symbol flags and FuncInfo flags to make things simpler. In
particular, the deadcode pass can check the reflectMethod
attribute without reading in and decoding FuncInfo.

The dev.link branch was not sync'd with the new DWARF compilation
unit logic change on the master branch, and the new object file
format didn't support this.
This CL adds the new DWARF CU and file table support to the new
object file format. In the old object file, the DWARF file table
is a separate section. For now, we do the same with the new
object file, keeping it as a separate block.
While here, also refactor the loader code so it is easier for the
loader to carry per-object informations.

With the old object file format, we use mmap (if supported) to
read object files and back symbol data with mapped read-only
memory.
Do the same with the new object file format. This also
significantly reduces number of syscalls made to read object
files.
Currently we still do mmap in object file level, not archive
level. This is probably ok, as there shouldn't be many archives
that contain more than one object. If this is a problem we can
change that later.

If -newobj is set, write object file in new format, which uses
indices for symbol references instead of symbol names. The file
format is described at the beginning of
cmd/internal/goobj2/objfile.go.
A new package, cmd/internal/goobj2, is introduced for reading and
writing new object files. (The package name is temporary.) It is
written in a way that trys to make the encoding as regular as
possible, and the reader and writer as symmetric as possible.
This is incomplete, and currently nothing will consume the new
object file.
