    elf_backend_section_flags and _bfd_elf_init_private_section_data
    
    I was looking at elf_backend_section_flags as a means of setting
    SEC_SMALL_DATA for .sdata, .sbss and the like, and condidered adding
    an asection* parameter to access the section name easily before
    realising that hdr->bfd_section of course makes the section
    available.  So no new parameter needed.  In fact the flagword*
    parameter isn't needed either, so out it goes.
    
    The patch also tidies some horrible code in _bfd_elf_new_section_hook
    that can change whether known ABI sections have sh_type and sh_flags
    set up depending on which of the bfd_make_section functions is used.
    (Some of those set section flags before _bfd_elf_new_section_hook is
    called, others leave the flags zero.)  The function also had some
    hacks for .init_array and .fini_array to affect how
    _bfd_elf_init_private_section_data behaved for those sections.  It's
    cleaner to do that in _bfd_elf_init_private_section_data.  So that all
    goes and we now init sh_type and sh_flags for all known ABI sections
    in _bfd_elf_new_section_hook.  _bfd_elf_init_private_section_data is
    changed to suit, and now doesn't just single out SHT_INIT_ARRAY and
    SHT_FINI_ARRAY but rather any of the special section types.
    
    The _bfd_elf_new_section_hook change resulting in
    +FAIL: ld-aarch64/erratum835769-843419
    exposing some errors in the aarch64 backend.  elfNN_aarch64_size_stubs
    should not be looking at linker created sections in the stub bfd.  Nor
    should code like "symtab_hdr = &elf_tdata (input_bfd)->symtab_hdr" be
    run without first checking that input_bfd is ELF.
    
            * elf-bfd.h (elf_backend_section_flags): Remove flagword* param.
            * elf.c (_bfd_elf_make_section_from_shdr): Set section flags before
            calling elf_backend_section_flags with adjusted params.  Use
            newsect->flags past that point.
            (_bfd_elf_new_section_hook): Always set sh_type and sh_flags for
            special sections.
            (_bfd_elf_init_private_section_data): Allow normal sh_type sections
            to have their type overridden, and all sh_flags but processor and
            os specific.
            * elf32-arm.c (elf32_arm_section_flags): Adjust for changed params.
            * elf32-mep.c (mep_elf_section_flags): Likewise.
            * elf32-nios2.c (nios2_elf32_section_flags): Likewise.
            * elf64-alpha.c (elf64_alpha_section_flags): Likewise.
            * elf64-ia64-vms.c (elf64_ia64_section_flags): Likewise.
            * elfnn-ia64.c (elfNN_ia64_section_flags): Likewise.
            * elfnn-aarch64.c (elfNN_aarch64_size_stubs): Exclude the linker
            stub BFD and non-aarch64 input files when scanning for stubs.
