Archreloc had this signature:
func(*Link, *sym.Reloc, *sym.Symbol, *int64) bool
The last *int64 argument is used as out parameter.
Passed valus could be allocated on stack, but escape analysis
fails here, leading to high number of unwanted allocs.
If instead 4th arg is passed by value, and modified values is returned,
no problems with allocations arise:
func(*Link, *sym.Reloc, *sym.Symbol, int64) (int64, bool)
There are 2 benefits:
1. code becomes more readable.
2. less allocations.

The linker's sym.Symbol struct contains two string fields, "Dynimplib"
and "Dynimpvers" that are used only in very specific circumstances
(for many symbols, such as DWARF syms, they are wasted space). Split
these two off into a separate struct, then point to an instance of
that struct when needed. This reduces the size of sym.Symbol so as to
save space in the common case.

We want to compress DWARF even on macOS, but the native toolchain isn't
going to understand it. Add a flag that can be used to disable
compression, then add Darwin to the whitelist used during internal
linking.
Unlike GNU ld, the Darwin linker doesn't have a handy linker flag to do
compression. But since we're already doing surgery to put the DWARF in
the output executable in the first place, compressing it at the same
time isn't unduly difficult. This does have the slightly odd effect of
compressing some Apple proprietary debug sections, which absolutely
nothing will understand. Leaving them uncompressed didn't make much
sense, though, since I doubt they're useful without (say) __debug_info.

The macOS and iOS external linker strips DWARF information from
binaries because it assumes the information will go into separate
DWARF information .dSYM files. To preserve the embedded debugging
information, the Go linker re-combines the separate DWARF
information into the unmapped __DWARF segment of the final
executable.
However, the iOS dyld linker does not allow unmapped segments, so
use the presence of the LC_VERSION_MIN_IPHONEOS linker command to
skip DWARF combining. Note that we can't use GOARCH for detection
since the iOS emulator runs on GOARCH=386 and GOARCH=amd64 and we
will run into https://golang.org/issues/25148.

The __.PKGDEF file is a compiler object file only intended for other
compilers. Also, for build systems that use -linkobj, all of the
information it contains is present within the linker object files
already, so look for it there instead.
This requires a little bit of code reorganization. Significantly,
previously when loading an archive file, the __.PKGDEF file was
authoritative on whether the package was "main" and/or "safe". Now
that we're using the Go object files instead, there's the issue that
there can be multiple Go object files in an archive (because when
using assembly, each assembly file becomes its own additional object
file).
The solution taken here is to check if any object file within the
package declares itself as "main" and/or "safe".
