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.

This change adds support for trampolines on ppc64x when using
internal linking, in the case where the offset to the branch
target is larger than what fits in the field provided by the
branch instruction.

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.
