    elf: Remove ELF_RTYPE_CLASS_EXTERN_PROTECTED_DATA
    
    If an executable has copy relocations for extern protected data, that
    can only work if the library containing the definition is built with
    assumptions (a) the compiler emits GOT-generating relocations (b) the
    linker produces R_*_GLOB_DAT instead of R_*_RELATIVE.  Otherwise the
    library uses its own definition directly and the executable accesses a
    stale copy.  Note: the GOT relocations defeat the purpose of protected
    visibility as an optimization, but allow rtld to make the executable and
    library use the same copy when copy relocations are present, but it
    turns out this never worked perfectly.
    
    ELF_RTYPE_CLASS_EXTERN_PROTECTED_DATA has strange semantics when both
    a.so and b.so define protected var and the executable copy relocates
    var: b.so accesses its own copy even with GLOB_DAT.  The behavior change
    is from commit 62da1e3b00b51383ffa7efc89d8addda0502e107 (x86) and then
    copied to nios2 (ae5eae7cfc9c4a8297ff82ec6b794faca1976ecc) and arc
    (0e7d930c4c11de896fe807f67fa1eb756c9c1e05).
    
    Without ELF_RTYPE_CLASS_EXTERN_PROTECTED_DATA, b.so accesses the copy
    relocated data like a.so.
    
    There is now a warning for copy relocation on protected symbol since
    commit 7374c02b683b7110b853a32496a619410364d70b.  It's extremely
    unlikely anyone relies on the ELF_RTYPE_CLASS_EXTERN_PROTECTED_DATA
    behavior, so let's remove it: this removes a check in the symbol lookup
    code.
