In bug 1470701, we added a dummy global variable so that it ends up in
the bss section, making it large enough for two pointers. Unfortunately,
in some cases, the symbol is eliminated by the linker because it is
unused. So we try to ensure it stays there.

This is some sort of followup to bug 1423813, providing a minimalistic
way to undo elfhack when the elfhack sections are in separate segments,
which has been the case since bug 1385783 but didn't cause problems
on Android builds until bug 1423822.

This effectively backs out bug 822584, which worked around a similar
problem to what we are facing with Android xpcshell, being that the
crash reporter doesn't handle the address space "fragmentation" induced
by elfhack. The work around worked, at the expense of some added
complexity.
It was used for B2G only, and has effectively been unused since B2G was
retired.

We need to sign parts of the contents of the archives, so the mar's that we
ship get built as part of the repackage task. Thus, there is no reason to also
create and upload as part of the build, just to throw them away.

Now that Linux PGO builds also do LTO and all the Linux builds use
clang, there's not much use for separate LTO builds.

Last attempt, a few years ago, blatantly failed because nautilus (the
GNOME file manager) can't start PIE executables, which look like shared
libraries, and that it thus considers not being executables.
Downstreams don't actually have the problem, because users won't be
launching Firefox from a file manager, but for mozilla.org builds, it is
a problem because users would download, then extract, and then likely
try to run the Firefox executable from a file manager.
So for mozilla.org builds, we still need to find a way around the
nautilus problem.
A .desktop file could be a solution, but .desktop files have not
actually been designed for this use case, which leads to:
- having to use an awful one-liner shell wrapper to derive the path
to the executable from that of the .desktop file,
- not even being able to associate an icon,
- the .desktop file not being copiable to a location where .desktop
files would normally go, because it would then fail to find the
executable.
Another possibility is to go back to using a shell wrapper, but that's
not entirely appealing.
What we chose here is similar, where we have a small `firefox` wrapper
that launches the real `firefox-bin` (which is still leftover from those
old times where we had a shell wrapper, for reasons).
The small `firefox` wrapper is a minimalist C executable that just
finds the path to the `firefox-bin` executable and executes it with the
same args it was called with. The wrapper is only enabled when the
MOZ_NO_PIE_COMPAT environment variable is set, which we only take into
account on Linux. The variable is only really meant to be used for
mozilla.org builds, for the nautilus problem. Downstreams will just pick
the default, which is changed to build PIE.
On other platforms, PIE was already enabled by default, so we just
remove the --enable-pie configure flag.

Bug 1487330 made mozconfig.asan use mozconfig.linux, but while that
worked out fine, it turns out that we do have mac builds using
e.g. mozconfig.asan, and that those can break when doing linux-specific
changes to mozconfig.linux.

All the Linux builds using GCC uses the binutils bundled with GCC. This
gives us some leeway to update the binutils used for clang builds (using
the binutils toolchain as of bug 1486998) separately.
Since we only ship builds using GCC, we're more free to upgrade
binutils for clang builds, without worrying about the next merge.
This upgrades to the last released version of binutils, and applies the
patch from https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23591 on top,
so that asan fuzzing builds don't fail.
The GPG key used to sign the upstream tarball is unfortunately not
connected to the web of trust. I verified the contents matched what's in
the Debian archive (which has a different tarball, because some files
are removed/modified in Debian for license reasons ; there were no
differences besides those).

Those mozconfigs do things in common that are already in
mozconfig.linux. Let's just use that.
This will make the build have the binutils toolchain in PATH rather than
passing it to CC/CXX, which is better because it also makes the build
use tools such as ar, ranlib, objcopy from the binutils toolchain,
rather than the old system ones.

The x86 linux builds originally were performed in x86 build environment.
That was a long time ago. Since then, they moved to x86-64 hosts with
x86 headers and libraries. But for reasons that might have to do with
the build system not really supporting cross-compilation nicely back
then, the build is still explicitly passing both --host and --target,
making those builds non-cross builds.
Since the toolchains used to build are for x86-64, the fact that --host
is for x86 actually prevents enabling the clang plugin, so we need to
turn these builds in actual cross builds if we want to enable the clang
plugin.

This change switches most CI builds to clang, with a few exceptions:
- valgrind builds, until bug 1481670 is figured out.
- PGO and nightly builds, until that's fully tested.
- coverage builds, per bug 1471339 comment 17.
- base toolchain builds, to keep some builds on GCC even when we're
fully switched to clang.
- any build that doesn't use build/unix/mozconfig.linux (e.g. probably
all those driven by autospider.py, maybe others).
In some rare cases, it is possible for one of the eh_frame sections'
original address to be larger than the address of the injected code
section, which is added before the first executable section. Namely,
this happens in the rare case where that eh_frame section is smaller
than the injected code section, and is adjacent to the first executable
section. We obviously want to move the eh_frame sections in that case,
since one of them is in the way.

Bug 1423822 moved the injected code section before the .text section.
When linking with lld, the text section is usually page aligned, and
starting a PT_LOAD. We inject code at the beginning of the PT_LOAD,
which means the PT_LOAD is going to be extended at least a page
downwards. And it means the preceding PT_LOAD can't finish in that same
page, so the overhead of the injected code is needs to account for the
page alignment.
If the .eh_frame_hdr and .eh_frame sections are not between the elfhack
relocation and elfhack code sections, it's not going to change anything
to try to move it, so don't even try.
While here, adjust the adjacency test to error out when the section name
doesn't match, and account for the fact that the eh_frame_hdr section
might appear after eh_frame.

All CI builds for linux32 have been running on 64-bits hosts for a long
while now, and there are no 32-bits hosts left. We can remove the
special-casing that makes the linux32 builds behave differently
depending on the bit-width of the host.
Furthermore, configure has been able to deal with adding -m32 on its
own, so we don't need to add it to $CC/$CXX manually anymore.

Somehow, when building with LTO, clang can end up creating a eh_frame
