[ELF] Merge copyLocalSymbols and demoteLocalSymbolsInDiscardedSections (#69425)
Follow-up to #69295: In `Writer<ELFT>::run`, the symbol passes are flexible: they can be placed almost everywhere before `scanRelocations`, with a constraint that the `computeIsPreemptible` pass must be invoked for linker-defined non-local symbols. Merge copyLocalSymbols and demoteLocalSymbolsInDiscardedSections to simplify code: * Demoting local symbols can be made unconditional, not constrainted to /DISCARD/ uses due to performance concerns * `includeInSymtab` can be made faster * Make symbol passes close to each other * Decrease data cache misses due to saving an iteration over local symbols There is no speedup, likely due to the unconditional `dr->section` access in `demoteAndCopyLocalSymbols`. `gc-sections-tls.s` no longer reports an error because the TLS symbol is converted to an Undefined.
