powerpc stub tweaks


Two bug fixes, and an inprovement.  One bug was that input bfds without
a toc were having elf_gp set from the previous input bfd as it appeared
on the linker command line.  Linker scripts might move input sections
around, thus ppc64_elf_next_input_section should be setting elf_gp, or
just ignore these bfds as far as setting toc_curr.  The other minor bug
was that calls to an absolute address always had a toc adjusting stub.

The improvement is to group input sections without regard to their
output sections.  Previously, we kept a list of sections for each
output section, but there's really no need to treat say .init separately
from .text.  This change may result in fewer stubs being needed.

	* elf64-ppc.c (struct ppc_link_hash_table): Remove top_index.  Modify
	input_list.
	(ppc64_elf_link_hash_table_create): Init input_list here.
	(ppc64_elf_setup_section_lists): Remove code setting up input lists
	per output section.  Set toc_off for abs and other standard sections.
	(ppc64_elf_reinit_toc): Don't set elf_gp on input bfds lacking a toc.
	(ppc64_elf_next_input_section): Adjust for single input section list.
	Don't set toc_curr from input bfds that haven't set elf_gp.
	(group_sections): Adjust for single input section list.

Note -w used in the following diff, so formatting looks silly in places.
