[gold commit] Strip .debug_gnu_pubnames/types when building gdb index


When building a .gdb_index section, gold should strip .debug_gnu_pubnames and
.debug_gnu_pubtypes sections, as it does for .debug_pubnames and
.debug_pubtypes. When not stripping those sections, there was a bug
where gold was incorrectly adjusting section-relative offsets by the offset
of the input section within the output section. That adjustment was both
unnecessary and wrong, causing gold to miss a number of debug entries that
should have been added to .gdb_index. (With stripping, the adjustment was
always 0, so the bug in dwarf_reader.cc would have been hidden by the change
to layout.cc.)

gold/
	* dwarf_reader.h (Dwarf_pubnames_table): Remove output_section_offset_.
	* dwarf_reader.cc (Dwarf_pubnames_table::read_section): Likewise.
	(Dwarf_pubnames_table::read_header): Likewise.
	* layout.cc (gdb_fast_lookup_sections): Add .debug_gnu_pubnames and
	.debug_gnu_pubtypes.
