[gold commit] Update list of debug sections for --strip-debug-xxx options


This patch adds .debug_gdb_scripts, .debug_gnu_pubnames,
.debug_gnu_pubtypes, and .debug_str_offsets to the lists of sections
to strip or keep when stripping debug info.

When using --strip-debug-gdb, we want to keep .debug_gdb_scripts and
.debug_str_offsets, but we want to strip .debug_gnu_pubnames and
.debug_gnu_pubtypes.

When using --strip-debug-non-line, we want to keep .debug_str_offsets
(a new section in DWARF v5, not yet used in any .o files). I've added
the other sections, commented out, to the list for completeness.
