--only-keep-debug produces a debug file as the output that only preserves contents of sections useful for debugging purposes (the binutils implementation preserves SHT_NOTE and non-SHF_ALLOC sections), by changing their section types to SHT_NOBITS and rewritting file offsets. See https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Separate-Debug-Files.html The intended use case is: ``` llvm-objcopy --only-keep-debug a a.dbg llvm-objcopy --strip-debug a b llvm-objcopy --add-gnu-debuglink=a.dbg b ``` The current layout algorithm is incapable of deleting contents and shrinking segments, so it is not suitable for implementing the functionality. This patch adds a new algorithm which assigns sh_offset to sections first, then modifies p_offset/p_filesz of program headers. It bears a resemblance to lld/ELF/Writer.cpp. Reviewed By: jhenderson, jakehehrlich Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D67137
