[PATCH] Remove the stripped group section from linker output


GCC 7 and above generates .debug_macro section in COMDAT group with
-g3.  But ld fails to recognize that a group section shouldn't be in
output when all of its members are stripped.  Update ld to remove the
stripped group section from linker output when all members are removed
by moving the stripped group section logic from objcopy.c to bfd.c so
that "ld -r -S" behaves the same as "strip -g".

OK for master?
