Support for multiple text sections was added in CL 27790.
However, this change broke the build on plan9/amd64.
In relocsym, the R_ADDROFF relocation was changed to
use offsets relative to the start of the first text
section. However, Segtext.Vaddr is the address of
the text segment, while we expect to start from
the first section (text.runtime) of the text segment.

ARM direct CALL/JMP instruction has 24 bit offset, which can only
encodes jumps within +/-32M. When the target is too far, the top
bits get truncated and the program jumps wild.
This CL detects too-far jumps and automatically insert trampolines,
currently only internal linking on ARM.
It is necessary to make the following changes to the linker:
- Resolve direct jump relocs when assigning addresses to functions.
this allows trampoline insertion without moving all code that
already laid down.
- Lay down packages in dependency order, so that when resolving a
inter-package direct jump reloc, the target address is already
known. Intra-package jumps are assumed never too far.
- a linker flag -debugtramp is added for debugging trampolines:
"-debugtramp=1 -v" prints trampoline debug message
"-debugtramp=2" forces all inter-package jump to use
trampolines (currently ARM only)
"-debugtramp=2 -v" does both
- Some data structures are changed for bookkeeping.
On ARM, pseudo DIV/DIVU/MOD/MODU instructions now clobber R8
(unfortunate). In the standard library there is no ARM assembly
code that uses these instructions, and the compiler no longer emits
them (CL 29390).
all.bash passes with -debugtramp=2, except a disassembly test (this
is unavoidable as we changed the instruction).
TBD: debug info of trampolines?
Fixes#17028.

Some applications built with Go on ppc64x with external linking
can fail to link with relocation truncation errors if the elf
text section that is generated is larger than 2^26 bytes and that
section contains a call instruction (bl) which calls a function
beyond the limit addressable by the 24 bit field in the
instruction.
This solution consists of generating multiple text sections where
each is small enough to allow the GNU linker to resolve the calls
by generating long branch code where needed. Other changes were added
to handle differences in processing when multiple text sections exist.
Some adjustments were required to the computation of a method's address
when using the method offset table when there are multiple text sections.
The number of possible section headers was increased to allow for up
to 128 text sections. A test case was also added.
Fixes#15823.

When cmd/compile generates position-independent code on linux
(the -shared flag), it refers to runtime.tlsg as a TLS IE variable.
When cmd/link is linking a PIE executable internally, all TLS IE
relocations are generated by cmd/compile, and the variable they
refer to, runtime.tlsg, is local to the binary. This means we can
optimize this particular IE case to LE, and thus implement IE
support when internally linking.
To do this optimization in the linker, we need to rewrite the
PC-relative MOVD to a constant load. This may seem like an
unconscionable act born of enthusiasm, but it turns out this is
standard operating procedure for linkers. GNU gold does exactly
the same optimization. I spent some time reading it and documented
at least one missing feature from this version.

cases where debug logging is not enabled, this means Flush is called
many times when there is nothing to be flushed (it will be called anyway
when ctx.Bso is eventually closed), sometimes in a loop.
Avoid this by moving the ctx.Bso.Flush call into the same condition
block as the debug print. This pattern was previously applied
sporadically.
