[Patch, avr] Fix PR ld/20545

Hi,

  The below patch fixes a couple of relaxation bugs in the linker for
  the avr backend.

  Prior to the patch, addends for relocs were being adjusted even if
  they went beyond an alignment boundary. This is wrong - to
  preserve alignment constraints, the relaxation logic adds as many padding
  bytes at the alignment boundary as was deleted, so addends beyond the
  boundary should not be adjusted. avr-prop-7.s reproduces this
  scenario.

  Also, prior to this patch, the relaxation logic assumed that the addr
  parameter pointed to the middle of the instruction to be deleted, and
  that addr - count would therefore be the shrinked instruction's
  address. This is true when actually shrinking instructions.

  The alignment constraints handling logic also invokes the same logic
  though, with addr as the starting offset of padding bytes and
  with count as the number of bytes to be deleted. Calculating the
  shrinked insn's address as addr - count is obviously wrong in this
  case - that offset would point to count bytes before the last
  non-padded byte. avr-prop-8.s reproduces this scenario.

  To fix scenario 1, the patch adds an additional check to ensure reloc addends
  aren't adjusted if they cross a shrink boundary. The shrink boundary
  is either the section size or an alignment boundary. Addends pointing
  at an alignment boundary don't need to be adjusted, as padding would
  occur and keep the boundary the same. Addends pointing at section size
  need to be adjusted though, as no padding occurs and the section size
  itself would get decremented. The patch records whether padding
  occured (did_pad) and uses that to detect and handle this condition.

  To fix scenario 2, the patch adds an additional parameter
  (delete_shrinks_insn) to elf32_avr_relax_delete_bytes to distinguish
  instruction bytes deletion from padding bytes deletion. It then uses that to
  correctly set shrinked_insn_address.

  Reg testing didn't show any regressions. Ok for trunk and backport to
  2.27?

Regards
Senthil
