8e457c865d [dev.link] cmd/link: begin converting gentext to loader APIs
Begin the job of converting the linker's "gentext" phase over to use
loader APIs. This patch includes most architectures except for s390x
and PPC (these will be added in subsequent patches, since they require
a couple of loader changes first).

b2f94d3e88 cmd/link: mmap output file
Use mmap for writing most of the output file content,
specifically, the sections and segments. After layout, we
already know the sizes and file offsets for the sections and
segments. So we can just write the bytes by copying to a mmap'd
backing store.

The writing of the output file is split into two parts. The first
part writes the sections and segments to the mmap'd region. The
second part writes some extra content, for which we don't know
the size, so we use direct file IO.

This is in preparation for mmap'ing input files read-only.

db2b6e1566 cmd/link: remove unused flag -D (FlagDataAddr)
FlagDataAddr is a vestige from git commit 0cafb9e (2008;
no Gerrit CL number).

It was never used but unfortunately setting it would
cause a spurious warning:

  warning: -D<value> is ignored because of -R0x1000

yet if -R was unset e.g. -R=0, the linker would crash
with a divide by zero runtime panic.

Fixes #28921

5fe9bbcf63 cmd/link: remove coutbuf global variable
Begin passing coutbuf by as a parameter. To make the initial plumbing
pass easier, it is also a field in the standard ctxt parameter.

Consolidate the byte writing functions into the OutBuf object.
The result is less architecture-dependent initialization.

To avoid plumbing out everywhere we want to report an error, move
handling of out file deletion to an AtExit function.

1e3570ac86 cmd/internal/objabi: extract shared functionality from obj
Now only cmd/asm and cmd/compile depend on cmd/internal/obj. Changing
the assembler backends no longer requires reinstalling cmd/link or
cmd/addr2line.

There's also now one canonical definition of the object file format in
cmd/internal/objabi/doc.go, with a warning to update all three
implementations.

objabi is still something of a grab bag of unrelated code (e.g., flag
and environment variable handling probably belong in a separate "tool"
package), but this is still progress.

Fixes #15165.
Fixes #20026.
