George Rimar fa73d7c8a9 [yaml2obj][obj2yaml] - Use a single "Other" field instead of "Other", "Visibility" and "StOther".
Currenly we can encode the 'st_other' field of symbol using 3 fields.
'Visibility' is used to encode STV_* values.
'Other' is used to encode everything except the visibility, but it can't handle arbitrary values.
'StOther' is used to encode arbitrary values when 'Visibility'/'Other' are not helpfull enough.

'st_other' field is used to encode symbol visibility and platform-dependent
flags and values. Problem to encode it is that it consists of Visibility part (STV_* values)
which are enumeration values and the Other part, which is different and inconsistent.

For MIPS the Other part contains flags for all STO_MIPS_* values except STO_MIPS_MIPS16.
(Like comment in ELFDumper says: "Someones in their infinite wisdom decided to make
STO_MIPS_MIPS16 flag overlapped with other ST_MIPS_xxx flags."...)

And for PPC64 the Other part might actually encode any value.

This patch implements custom logic for handling the st_other and removes
'Visibility' and 'StOther' fields.

Here is an example of a new YAML style this patch allows:

- Name:  foo
  Other: [ 0x4 ]
- Name:  bar
  Other: [ STV_PROTECTED, 4 ]
- Name:  zed
  Other: [ STV_PROTECTED, STO_MIPS_OPTIONAL, 0xf8 ]
