Log:
  MFC r339451: objcopy: restore behaviour required by GCC's build

  In r339350 filter_reloc() was removed, to fix the case of stripping
  statically linked binaries with relocations (which may come from ifunc
  use, for example).  As a side effect this changed the behaviour when
  stripping object files - the output was broken both before and after
  r339350, in different ways.  Unfortunately GCC's build process relies
  on the previous behaviour, so:

  - Revert r339350, restoring filter_reloc().
  - Fix an unitialized variable use (commited as r3638 in ELF Tool Chain).
  - Change filter_reloc() to omit relocations referencing removed
    symbols, while retaining relocations with no symbol reference.
  - Retain the entire relocation section if it references the dynamic
    symbol table (fix from kaiw in D17596).
