[16/21] Add AIX weak support


This patch adds support for AIX C_WEAKEXT symbols.

Unfortunately, there seems to be some historical baggage here.
The AIX port was originally developed before AIX 5.2 came out,
and at that time AIX did not support weak symbols.  We had this
GNU-specific C_WEAKEXT definition instead:

#define C_WEAKEXT	127	/* weak symbol -- GNU extension.  */

We wrote out BSF_WEAK symbols using this C_WEAKEXT, and read C_WEAKEXT
symbols as BSF_WEAK, but for XCOFF we did little else.  The linker didn't
even enter weak symbols into the hash table, so a simple test like:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
set -eu
cat <<EOF >f1.s
	.weak	foo
	.csect	foo[RW]
foo:
	.long	1
EOF
cat <<EOF >f2.s
	.globl	bar
	.csect	bar[RW]
bar:
	.long	foo
EOF
cat <<EOF >exports
bar
EOF
./gas/as-new f1.s -o f1.o
./gas/as-new f2.s -o f2.o
./ld/ld-new f1.o f2.o -o f.so -shared -bnogc -bE:exports
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

failed with:

f2.o:fake:(.rw+0x0): undefined reference to `foo'

Weak support was added in AIX 5.2, which used a C_WEAKEXT value of 111
instead of 127.  The following patch added this alternative value:

2003-12-02  Graham Reed <grahamr@algorithmics.com>

	* internal.h (C_WEAKEXT): Add alternative value for AIX 5.2
	based targets.

However, no other changes were made, so weak symbols were still
essentially unsupported.  The testcase above still fails for AIX 5.2.

The AIX semantics of C_WEAKEXT are very different from what we implement
at the moment.  The symbols behave similarly to C_EXT and C_HIDEXT,
in that:

  (a) they should have auxillary csect information
  (b) they may have auxillary function information

But despite the problems above, I don't think it's appropriate to
change the meaning of GNU C_WEAKEXT symbols.  The new behaviour
should apply to AIX C_WEAKEXT only.  I've therefore added a new
C_AIX_WEAKEXT symbol type and made the new code use that instead
of C_WEAKEXT.  The general principle (which I think is used quite
a lot in binutils) is that:

  - We should handle existing C_AIX_WEAKEXT symbols without trying
    to be puritanical about the configured AIX version.  That is,
    we shouldn't refuse to handle existing C_AIX_WEAKEXT symbols
    simply because we were configured for AIX 5.1 or below.

  - We should only use the new features if they're supported.

As well as C_WEAKEXT, AIX 5.2 added a new L_WEAK flag for dynamic
(.loader) symbols.  The patch handles that too.

The main non-obvious change is to xcoff_link_add_dynamic_symbols.
This function looks at each symbol S defined by dynamic object D
and currently does the following:

  (1) If S was previously unknown, the function assumes that D defines S.
      It indicates this by setting S's symbol type to bfd_link_hash_undefined
      and pointing undef.abfd at D.

  (2) If S was previously undefined, and no dynamic definition has yet
      been found, the function again assumes that D defines S.  It indicates
      this by leaving S's type as-is (bfd_link_hash_undefined or _undefweak)
      and pointing undef.abfd at D.

  (3) If S previously had an unknown symbol class (XMC_UA), or was
      previously marked as _undefined or _undefweak, the function sets
      its symbol class to the one found in B.

(1) and (2) are sensible enough, but I take issue with (3).  If D doesn't
define S, I don't think it's right to copy the symbol class found in D to S.
We should stick with whatever the defining bfd said.

I think it makes more sense to skip any symbols that D doesn't define.
This makes the current logic more obvious, but more importantly,
it's then easier to see how weak support should fit in.

OK to install?
