db48d45838 [dev.link] cmd/link: handle multiple levels of overwrite
Revamp the way that symbol overwrites are handled to deal with symbols
that are overwritten more than once (such as "_cgo_mmap"). The
scenario here is that a symbol can be overwritten twice, once during
preload, and then again when host objects are read during internal
linking. This can result in a situation where we have two entries in
the overwrite map, from X -> Y and then from Y -> Z. Rather than
search the overwrite map when adding new entries, add a helper routine
for querying the map that catches this situation and fixes it up.

Also with this patch is a couple of tweaks to the loader.Dump method
to insure that it can dump the entire global index space without
crashing due to odd overwrites (as in the scenario above).

d5854bf8e6 [dev.link] cmd/link: support updates to contents of obj-based Syms
Add in the hooks to SymbolBuilder and to the loader to allow
the linker to make modifications to a non-external symbol (e.g.
a sym whose index is less than loader.extStart).

The basic idea is to manufacture a new external symbol with the same
name and version, then import the old symbol's content (type, data,
relocations, etc) into the payload struct for the new symbol, and
finally redirect the name lookup tables to target the new sym for the
specified name/version.

This change is needed in order to convert over the host object loaders
to avoid use of sym.Symbol.

b720014743 [dev.link] cmd/link: add SymbolBuilder helper
Add SymbolBuilder helper type -- this type provides a set of methods
intended to make it easy to manipulate the content of a symbol (type,
relocations, data, etc).
