cmd/link: handle grouped resource sections
The Go PE linker does not support enough generalized PE logic to
properly handle .rsrc sections gracefully. Instead a few things are
special cased for these. The linker also does not support PE's "grouped
sections" features, in which input objects have several named sections
that are sorted, merged, and renamed in the output file. In the past,
more sophisticated support for resources or for PE features like grouped
sections have not been necessary, as Go's own object formats are pretty
vanilla, and GNU binutils also produces pretty vanilla objects where all
sections are already merged.
However, GNU binutils is lagging with arm support, and here LLVM has
picked up the slack. In particular, LLVM has its own rc/cvtres combo,
which are glued together in mingw LLVM distributions as windres, a
command line compatible tool with binutils' windres, which supports arm
and arm64. But there's a key difference between binutils' windres and
LLVM's windres: the LLVM one uses proper grouped sections.
So, this commit adds grouped sections support for resource sections to
the linker. We don't attempt to plumb generic support for grouped
sections, just as there isn't generic support already for what resources
require. Instead we augment the resource handling logic to deal with
standard two-section resource objects.
We also add a test for this, akin to the current test for more vanilla
binutils resource objects, and make sure that the rsrc tests are always
performed.
Fixes #42866.
Fixes #43182.
