[PATCH] D61629: [ELF] Try placing newly created ThunkSection at the end of the InputSection first

[Fangrui Song via Phabricator via llvm-commits]

MaskRay added a comment.

It is inspired by PR40740. It doesn't fix it.

The nice property would be extremely difficult to test directly after both PPC64/MIPS move towards getThunkSectionSpacing (I know little about MIPS to craft a MIPS test..). Just wanted to know if you think this is good to do before I start updating the following tests.
