[ELF] Split RW PT_LOAD on the PT_GNU_RELRO boundary
Summary: Based on Peter Collingbourne's suggestion in D56828. Before D56828: PT_LOAD(.data PT_GNU_RELRO(.data.rel.ro .bss.rel.ro) .bss) Old: PT_LOAD(PT_GNU_RELRO(.data.rel.ro .bss.rel.ro) .data .bss) New: PT_LOAD(PT_GNU_RELRO(.data.rel.ro .bss.rel.ro)) PT_LOAD(.data. .bss) The new layout reflects the runtime memory mappings. By having two PT_LOAD segments, we can utilize the NOBITS part of the first PT_LOAD and save bytes for .bss.rel.ro. .bss.rel.ro is currently small and only used by copy relocations of symbols in read-only segments, but it can be used for other purposes in the future, e.g. if a relro section's statically relocated data is all zeros, we can move it to .bss.rel.ro.
