This was originally
Revert "cmd/link: fix up debug_range for dsymutil (revert CL 72371)"
which has the effect of no longer using Base Address Selection
Entries in DWARF. However, the build-time costs of that are
about 2%, so instead the hacky fixup that generated technically
incorrect DWARF was removed from the linker, and the choice
is instead made in the compiler, dependent on platform, but
also under control of a flag so that we can report this bug
against LLDB/dsymutil/dwarfdump (really, the LLVM dwarf
libraries).
This however does not solve #31188; debugging still fails,
but dwarfdump no longer complains. There are at least two
LLDB bugs involved, and this change will at allow us
to report them without them being rejected because our
now-obsolete workaround for the first bug creates
not-quite-DWARF.
Updates #31188.

Dsymutil, an utility used on macOS when externally linking executables,
does not support base address selector entries in debug_ranges.
To work around this deficiency this commit removes base address
selectors from debug_ranges and emits instead a list composed only of
compile unit relative addresses.
A new type of relocation is introduced, R_ADDRCUOFF, similar to
R_ADDROFF, that relocates an address to its offset from the low_pc of
the symbol's compile unit.

Prior to this CL, the compiler and assembler
were sloppy about the LSym.Type for LSyms
containing static data.
The linker then fixed this up, converting
Sxxx and SBSS to SDATA, and SNOPTRBSS to SNOPTRDATA
if it noticed that the symbol had associated data.
It is preferable to just get this right in cmd/compile
and cmd/asm, because it removes an unnecessary traversal
of the symbol table from the linker (see #14624).
Do this by touching up the LSym.Type fixes in
LSym.prepwrite and Link.Globl.
I have confirmed by instrumenting the linker
that the now-eliminated code paths were unreached.
And an additional check in the object file writing code
will help preserve that invariant.
There was a case in the Windows linker,
with internal linking and cgo,
where we were generating SNOPTRBSS symbols with data.
For now, convert those at the site at which they occur
into SNOPTRDATA, just like they were.
Does not pass toolstash-check,
but does generate identical linked binaries.
No compiler performance changes.

Given code such as
type T struct {
_ string
}
func f() {
var x = T{"space"}
// ...
}
the compiler rewrote the 'var x' line as
var x T
x._ = "space"
The compiler then rejected the assignment to
a blank field, thus rejecting valid code.
It also failed to catch a number of invalid assignments.
And there were insufficient checks for validity
when emitting static data, leading to ICEs.
To fix, check earlier for explicit blanks field names,
explicitly handle legit blanks in sinit,
and don't try to emit static data for nodes
for which typechecking has failed.

This reduces the number of pointers in the type information.
This also moves all reflect.name types into the same section, making
it possible to use nameOff more widely in later CLs.

Instead of generating ADATA instructions for
static data, write that static data directly
into the linker sym.
This is considerably more efficient.
The assembler still generates
ADATA instructions, so the ADATA machinery
cannot be dismantled yet. (Future work.)
Skipping ADATA has a significant impact
compiling the unicode package, which has lots
of static data.
name old time/op new time/op delta
Unicode 227ms ±10% 192ms ± 4% -15.61% (p=0.000 n=29+30)

This does not pass toolstash -cmp, because
this changes the order in which some relocations
get added, and thus it changes the output from
the compiler. It is not worth the execution time
to sort the relocs in the normal case.
However, compiling with -S -v generates identical
output if (1) you suppress printing of ADATA progs
in flushplist and (2) you suppress printing of
cpu timing. It is reasonable to suppress printing
the ADATA progs, since the data itself is dumped
later. I am therefore fairly confident that all
changes are superficial and non-functional.
Fixes#14786, although there's more to do
in general.

The signature is changed. The flag was unused so drop it. Add a

TODO: A future change will unify Rconv as well and this argument

Some formats changed, because of the automatic consistency
created by unification. For instance, 0(R1) always prints as (R1)
now, and foo+0(SB) is just foo(SB). Before, some made these
simplifications and some didn't; now they all do.
