This deletes all sym.Symbol and sym.Reloc references. This is
certainly not complete, and there are more cleanups to do. But I
feel this makes a good first round.

This patch begins the work of converting the linker's dodata phase to
work with loader APIs. Passes all.bash on linux/amd64, but hasn't been
tested on anything else (more arch-specific code needs to be written).
Use of the new dodata() phase is currently gated by a temporary
command line flag ("-newdodata"), and there is code in the linker's
main routine to insure that we only use the new version for the right
GOOS/GOARCH (currently restricted to ELF + AMD64).

Currently, we use a dense array to store symbol's sections. The
array element is a *sym.Section, which takes 8 bytes per symbol
on a 64-bit machine. And the array is created upfront.
To reduce memory usage, use a 16-bit index for sections, so we
store 2 bytes per symbol. The array is pointerless, reducing GC
work. Also create the array lazily.
This reduces some memory usage: linking cmd/compile,
name old alloc/op new alloc/op delta
Loadlib_GC 42.1MB ± 0% 36.2MB ± 0% -14.01% (p=0.008 n=5+5)
name old live-B new live-B delta
Loadlib_GC 16.8M ± 0% 15.4M ± 0% -8.36% (p=0.008 n=5+5)
Archive_GC 98.2M ± 0% 97.2M ± 0% -1.02% (p=0.008 n=5+5) # at the end

The lookup is only used for DWARF section symbols, for which we
can just link the symbols to the sections.
