This includes the first parts of the general approach to PIC: load PC into CX
whenever it is needed. This is going to lead to large binaries and poor
performance but it's a start and easy to get right.

The GNU binutils recently picked up support for new 386/amd64
relocations. Add support for them in the Go linker when doing an
internal link.
The 386 relocation R_386_GOT32X was proposed in
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/ia32-abi/GbJJskkid4I . It can
be treated as identical to the R_386_GOT32 relocation.
The amd64 relocations R_X86_64_GOTPCRELX and R_X86_64_REX_GOTPCRELX were
proposed in
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/x86-64-abi/n9AWHogmVY0 . They
can both be treated as identical to the R_X86_64_GOTPCREL relocation.
The purpose of the new relocations is to permit additional linker
relaxations in some cases. We do not attempt to support those cases.
While we're at it, remove the unused and in some cases out of date
_COUNT names from ld/elf.go.
Fixes#13114.

When dynamically linking, we want references to functions defined
in this module to always be to the function object, not to the
PLT. We force this by writing an additional local symbol for
every global function symbol and making all relocations against
the global symbol refer to this local symbol instead. This is
approximately equivalent to the ELF linker -Bsymbolic-functions
option, but that is buggy on several platforms.

The LSym.Section and Section.Elfsect fields were defined as interface{} but
always had the same concrete type (*Section and *ElfShdr respectively) so just
define them with that type. Reduces size of LSym from 328 to 320 bytes and
reduces best-of-10 maxresident size from 246028k to 238036k when linking
libstd.so.

Trivial merging of 5g, 6g, ... into go tool compile,
and similarlly 5l, 6l, ... into go tool link.
The files compile/main.go and link/main.go are new.
Everything else in those directories is a move followed by
change of imports and package name.
This CL breaks the build. Manual fixups are in the next CL.
See golang-dev thread titled "go tool compile, etc" for background.
