This was discussed here:
https://reviews.llvm.org/D60825#1479435

Currently when --allow-broken-links is not given we always report a error when
removing a symbol table used by a dynamic relocation section.
Though it should be possible to do that only in a case when we know that using
symbols from dynamic symbol table.

Technically it also applies to regular relocations, not just dynamic ones.
