This causes all symbols to be exported in the final wasm binary
even if they were not compiled with default visibility.
This feature is useful for the emscripten toolchain that has a
corresponding EXPORT_ALL feature which allows the JS code to
interact with all C function.

This change adds the ability for lld to remove LEB padding from
code section. This effectively shrinks the size of the resulting
binary in proportion to the number of code relocations.
Since there will be a performance cost this is currently only active for
-O1 and above. Some toolchains may instead want to perform this
compression as a post linker step (for example running a binary through
binaryen will automatically compress these values).
I imagine we might want to make this the default in the future.

Merging data segments produces smaller code sizes because each segment
has some boilerplate. Therefore, merging data segments is generally the
right approach, especially with wasm where binaries are typically
delivered over the network.
However, when analyzing wasm binaries, it can be helpful to get a
conservative picture of which functions are using which data
segments[0]. Perhaps there is a large data segment that you didn't
expect to be included in the wasm, introduced by some library you're
using, and you'd like to know which library it was. In this scenario,
merging data segments only makes the analysis worse.
Alternatively, perhaps you will remove some dead functions by-hand[1]
that can't be statically proven dead by the compiler or lld, and
removing these functions might make some data garbage collect-able, and
you'd like to run `--gc-sections` again so that this now-unused data can
be collected. If the segments were originally merged, then a single use
of the merged data segment will entrench all of the data.

This enables callback-style programming where the JavaScript environment
can call back into the Wasm environment using a function pointer
received from the module.

Group all synthetic symbols in the in single struct to match
the ELF linker.
This change is part of a larger change to add more linker
symbols such as `_end` and `_edata`.

In this initial version we only GC symbols with `hidden` visibility since
other symbols we export to the embedder.
We could potentially modify this the future and only use symbols
explicitly passed via `--export` as GC roots.
This version of the code only does GC of data and code. GC for the
types section is coming soon.

This was added to mimic ELF, but maintaining it has cost
and we currently don't have any use for it outside of the
test code.

This change allows checking of function signatures but
does not yes enable it by default. In this mode, linking
two objects that were compiled with a different signatures
for the same function will produce a link error.
New options for enabling and disabling this feature have been
added: (--check-signatures/--no-check-signatures).
