[PATCH] D23603: [ELF] - Linkerscript: merge section attributes when create output section.

[Rafael Espíndola via llvm-commits]

Has anyone hit a problem in the wild with us creating multiple
sections? If not I think we should just go back to creating multiple
sections.

If we do have to create a single one we should probably do what gold
does and have a 2 step merging (input-section -> chunk ->
output-section) and the factory would still be used for the first
part.

Cheers,
Rafael
