[llvm-objcopy] Make removeSectionReferences batched
Summary:
Removing a large number of sections from a file with a lot of symbols can have abysmal (i.e. O(n^2)) performance, e.g. when running `--only-section` to extract one section out of a large file.
This comes from iterating over all symbols in the symbol table each time we remove a section, to remove references to the section we just removed.
Instead, do just one pass of symbol removal by passing a hash set of all the sections we'd like to remove references to.
This fixes a regression when running llvm-objcopy -j <one section> on an object file with many sections and symbols -- on my machine, running `objcopy -j .keep_me huge-input.o /tmp/foo.o` takes .3s with GNU objcopy, 1.3s with an updated llvm-objcopy, and 7+ minutes with llvm-objcopy prior to this patch.
