[PATCH] D20272: [ELF] - Support of compressed input sections implemented.

[Rui Ueyama via llvm-commits]

It's also worth to mention that you could utilize multiple cores if you uncompress sections in writeTo() since writeTo() is parallelized for each input section when --thread is given. Since uncompressing gzipped data is fairly CPU intensive task, I'd expect it would make the linker noticeable faster when handling compressed sections.
