[binutils-gdb] Add extern_protected_data and set it for x86


*** TEST RESULTS FOR COMMIT f74839702efcea048ac61374b1539ae81e7c86cc ***

Author: H.J. Lu <hjl.tools@gmail.com>
Branch: master
Commit: f74839702efcea048ac61374b1539ae81e7c86cc

Add extern_protected_data and set it for x86
Re-apply: commit ca3fe95e469b9daec153caa2c90665f5daaec2b5

With copy relocation, address of protected data defined in the shared
library may be external.  This patch adds extern_protected_data and
changes _bfd_elf_symbol_refs_local_p to return false for protected data
if extern_protected_data is true.

This patch will break building shared libraries with protected data
symbols using GCCs older than GCC 5 without the bug fix for

https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=65248

GCC backport request should be made in the GCC bug report above.

To get correct run-time behavior on Linux, glibc 2.22 or above are
required, which have the bug fix for

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17711

Backports for glibc 2.21, 2.20, 2.19 and 2.18 are on hjl/pr17711/2.21,
hjl/pr17711/2.20, hjl/pr17711/2.19 and hjl/pr17711/2.18 branches,
respectively, at
