1) Update cgen/utils.scm emitted copyrights.
2) Run "etc/update-copyright.py --this-year" with an extra external
author I haven't committed, 'Kalray SA.', to cover gas testsuite
files (which should have their copyright message removed).
3) Build with --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-cgen-maint=yes.

The PLT entry in executables and shared libraries contains an indirect
branch, like
jmp *foo@GOTPCREL(%rip)
push $index_foo
jmp .PLT0
or
endbr64
jmp *foo@GOTPCREL(%rip)
NOP padding
which is used to branch to the function, foo, defined in another object.
Each R_X86_64_JUMP_SLOT relocation has a corresponding PLT entry.
The dynamic tags have been added to the x86-64 psABI to mark such PLT
entries:
6d824a52a4
Add an x86-64 linker option, -z mark-plt, to mark PLT entries with
#define DT_X86_64_PLT (DT_LOPROC + 0)
#define DT_X86_64_PLTSZ (DT_LOPROC + 1)
#define DT_X86_64_PLTENT (DT_LOPROC + 3)
1. DT_X86_64_PLT: The address of the procedure linkage table.
2. DT_X86_64_PLTSZ: The total size, in bytes, of the procedure linkage

3. DT_X86_64_PLTENT: The size, in bytes, of a procedure linkage table
entry.
and set the r_addend field of the R_X86_64_JUMP_SLOT relocation to the
memory offset of the indirect branch instruction. The dynamic linker
can use these tags to update the PLT section to direct branch.

This patch is aimed at making __bss_start properly aligned with the
first of any bss-style sections following. Most of the work here
involves keeping track of the last output section seen when processing
the linker script.
You can almost align __bss_start properly by using
${RELOCATING+. = ALIGN(${DATA_SDATA-${NO_SMALL_DATA-ALIGNOF(.${SBSS_NAME}) != 0 ? ALIGNOF(.${SBSS_NAME}) : }}${BSS_PLT+ALIGNOF(.plt) != 0 ? ALIGNOF(.plt) : }ALIGNOF(.${BSS_NAME}));}
and changing every place that defines NO_SMALL_DATA to use " ", but
having two .plt sections (marked SPECIAL) on some backends foils that
idea. The problem is that you only want to pick up the following
.plt, not the one preceeding __bss_start in the data segment if the
backend decides that is the proper .plt section.
Perhaps that could be fixed too, but I decided instead to extend the
linker script a little. THIS_SECTION and PREV_SECTION could easily be
added too.

The answer to PR28902 may be deduced from the existing INSERT
documentation that says the default script is parsed after the -T
INSERT script, if you assume (correctly) that nothing special is done
when inserting into -T scripts overriding the default script. In both
cases INSERT handling looks for the specified output section later on
the internal list of parsed script commands. This isn't obvious
though, so make the ordering explicit, and mention that section
assignments are the same too.

The newer update-copyright.py fixes file encoding too, removing cr/lf
on binutils/bfdtest2.c and ld/testsuite/ld-cygwin/exe-export.exp, and
embedded cr in binutils/testsuite/binutils-all/ar.exp string match.
The linker merges all the input .sframe sections. When merging, the
linker verifies that all the input .sframe sections have the same
abi/arch.
The linker uses libsframe library to perform key actions on the
.sframe sections - decode, read, and create output data. This
implies buildsystem changes to make and install libsframe before
libbfd.
The linker places the output .sframe section in a new segment of its
own: PT_GNU_SFRAME. A new segment is not added, however, if the
generated .sframe section is empty.
When a section is discarded from the final link, the corresponding
entries in the .sframe section for those functions are also deleted.
The linker sorts the SFrame FDEs on start address by default and sets
the SFRAME_F_FDE_SORTED flag in the .sframe section.
This patch also adds support for generation of SFrame unwind
information for the .plt* sections on x86_64. SFrame unwind info is
generated for IBT enabled PLT, lazy/non-lazy PLT.
The existing linker option --no-ld-generated-unwind-info has been
adapted to include the control of whether .sframe unwind information
will be generated for the linker generated sections like PLT.
Changes to the linker script have been made as necessary.

If the jansson library is available at build time (and it is explicitly
enabled), link ld to it, and use it to validate that the input is
correct JSON, to avoid writing garbage to the file. The
configure option --enable-jansson has to be used to explicitly enable
it (error out when not found). This allows bootstrappers (or others who
are not interested) to seamlessly skip it without issues.
