gold patch committed: Create output section if script assigns to dot

[Ian Lance Taylor]

PR 13163 is about a test case in which a linker script creates a section which
contains nothing but an assignment to dot.  That is enough to cause the GNU
linker to create the output section, but gold was not doing so.  This
later led to
a crash in gold.  This patch fixes the problem by creating an output
section which
does an assignment to dot.  Committed to mainline.
