    add -ltrans-objects lto-plugin debug option
    
    This adds a -ltrans-objects option to lto-plugin that by-passes
    lto-wrapper invocation and instead feeds LD the final LTRANS objects
    directly from the response file given as argument to the option.
    This allows LD issues involving the linker-plugin path to be
    debugged in an easier way with just the IR objects (their symtab)
    and the LTRANS objects as testcase.
    
    I've tested the path re-building stage2 build/genmatch from an
    LTO bootstrap and got a bit-identical executable by adding
    -plugin-opt=-ltrans-objects=y to the original collect2 invocation,
    seeding y with the final objects as printed by building genmatch
    with -save-temps -v.

            * lto-plugin.c (ltrans_objects): New global.
            (all_symbols_read_handler): If -ltrans-objects was specified,
            add the output files from the specified file directly.
            (process_option): Handle -ltrans-objects.
