The change implementing the .persistent family of sections broke the
existing support for the .persistent.bss section in the compiler:
int a __attribute__ ((section (".persistent.bss")));
t.s: Assembler messages:
t.s:4: Warning: setting incorrect section type for .persistent.bss
The compiler encodes it as @nobits but the assembler expects @progbits.
The assembler is incorrect and should treat the section like the compiler.

The local ".L0" symbol are usually generated to mark where the
auipc instruction is, and clang also uses ".LBB" to do the same
thing. Besides, clang also uses the empty name symbols for label
differences. Arm surpress their mapping symbols by regarding them
as special symbols, and MIPS surpress all local symbols. Therefore,
RISC-V probably need to surpress the local and empty name symbols
for nm and related tools. User can use "--special-syms" to show
these surpressed symbols.

Fix the wrong version of i-ext when expanding g-ext. This was changed by
the previous patch accidently.
bfd/
* elfxx-riscv.c (riscv_parse_std_ext): Fixed the wrong versions of
i-ext when expanding g-ext.
The linker does not care the default versions of the extensions, since
it does not have the default ISA spec setting. Therefore, linker won't
insert the implicit extensions for the input objects. But we used to
insert the i-ext as the explicit extension, even if the e-ext is set.
This causes linker to report "cannot find default versions of the ISA
extension `i'" errors when linking the input objects with e-ext.
This patch fixes the above linker problem, and also remove the confused
riscv_ext_dont_care_version function. Unless these "dont care" extensions
are set in the input architecture explicitly, otherwise we always insert
them as the implicit ones. Afterwards, let riscv_arch_str1 surpress them
not to output to the architecture string if their versions are
RISCV_UNKNOWN_VERSION.

The original discussion is as follows,
https://github.com/riscv/riscv-isa-manual/issues/637
I never considered the prefixes may have multiple letters, like zxm.
But the ISA spec has been updated for a long time that I haven't noticed.
This patch rewrites the part of architecture parser to support parsing
the multi-letter prefixes. Besides, I also improve the parser to report
errors in details. One of the most obvious improvement is - Do not parse
the prefixed extensions according to the orders in the parse_config.
If we do so, then we used to get "unexpected ISA string at end" errors,
but the message is a little bit hard to know what is happening. I Remove
the confused message, and let riscv_parse_prefixed_ext to report the details.

The change in PR19011 changed the image load address from being in the lower
32-bit address space to the higher 64-bit address space.
However when you have a weak undef symbol which stays undef at the end of
linking the linker has to resolve this (Windows loader does not support undef
symbols). As such typically these would resolve to 0.
The relocation used for these weak symbols are the normal 32-bit PC_REL call
relocs. So when doing the overflow check LD checks if the distance between the
symbol and the call is within range. However now that the load address is
> 32-bits and the symbol val is 0 this overflow check will always fail.
As such the linker gives a bogus error. This patch makes the linker not emit
the overflow failure but chooses to still let the check be performed (as it's
mid-end code).
One down side of this is that it does break the common convention that the call
be to sym at 0x0. i.e. before you'd get
401015: 74 05 je 40101c
401017: e8 e4 ef bf ff callq 0
and now you get
140001015: 74 05 je 14000101c
140001017: e8 e4 ef ff bf call 100000000
since the call is PC_REL there's no way to get the range large enough to
resolve to 0. As such I have chosen to leave it as the furthest simple range
that we can still represent.
By only ignoring the error we leave the symbol value itself to still be 0
such that the if(<symbol>) checks still work correctly.
