Consider three shared libraries:
libBase.so -- defines a type T
lib2.so -- references type T
lib3.so -- also references type T, and something from lib2
lib2.so will contain a type symbol for T in its symbol table, but no
definition. If, when linking lib3.so the linker reads the symbols from lib2.so
before libBase.so, the linker didn't read the type data and later crashed.
The fix is trivial but the test change is a bit messy because the order the
linker reads the shared libraries in ends up depending on the order of the
import statements in the file so I had to rename one of the test packages so
that gofmt doesn't fix the test by accident...

When building shared libraries, all symbols on Allsym are marked reachable.
What I didn't realize was that this includes the ".dup" symbols created when
"dupok" symbols are read from multiple package files. This breaks now because
deadcode makes some assumptions that fail for these ".dup" symbols, but in any
case was a bad idea -- I suspect this change makes libstd.so a bunch smaller,
but creating it was broken before this CL so I can't be sure.
This change simply stops adding these symbols to Allsym, which might make some
of the many iterations over Allsym the linker does a touch quicker, although
that's not the motivation here.
Add a test that no symbols called ".dup" makes it into the runtime shared
library.

https://golang.org/s/execmodes defines rules for how multiple codes of a go
package work when they end up in the address space of a single process, but
currently the linker blows up in this situation. Fix that by loading all .a
files before any .so files and ignoring duplicate symbols found when loading
shared libraries.
I know this is very very late for 1.6 but at least it should clearly not have
any effect when shared libraries are not in use.

The motivation for this is the innocuous looking test case that is added. This
creates a stack exe -> libdep2.so -> libdep.so -> libruntime.so. The problem
comes from the fact that a function from libdep.so gets inlined all the way
into exe. This (unsurprisingly) means that the object file for exe references
symbols from libdep.so, which means that -ldep needs to be passed when linking
exe and it isn't. The fix is simply to pass it -- there is no harm in passing
it when it's not needed.
The thing is, it's not clear at all in the current code to see how the linker
can know that libdep2 is linked against libdep. It could look through the
DT_NEEDED entries in libdep2 and try to guess which are Go libraries, but it
feels better to be explicit. So this adds another SHT_NOTE section that lists
the shared libraries a shared library was linked against, and makes sure the
complete set of depended upon shared libraries is passed to the external
linker.

This makes for a more stable API for tools (including cmd/link itself) to
extract the abi hash from a shared library and makes it possible at all for a
library that has had the local symbol table removed.
The existing note-writing code only supports writing notes into the very start
of the object file so they are easy to find in core dumps. This doesn't apply
to the "go" notes and means that all notes have to fit into a fixed size
budget. That's annoying now we have more notes (and the next CL will add
another one) so this does a little bit of work to make adding notes that do not
have to go at the start of the file easier and moves the writing of the package
list note over to that mechanism, which lets me revert a hack that increased
the size budget mentioned above for -buildmode=shared builds.
