elfcpp/ChangeLog
* arm.h: New enums for EABI object attribute tags and values.

gold/ChangeLog
* arm.cc (attributes.h): New include.
(Arm_relobj::Arm_relobj): Initialize attributes_section_data_.
(Arm_relobj::~Arm_relobj): Delete object pointed by
attributes_section_data_.
(Arm_relobj::attributes_section_data): New method definition.
(Arm_relobj::attributes_section_data_): New data member declaration.
(Arm_dynobj::Arm_dynobj): Initialize attributes_section_data_.
(Arm_dynobj::~Arm_dynobj): Delete object pointed by
attributes_section_data_.
(Arm_dynobj::attributes_section_data): New method definition.
(Arm_dynobj::attributes_section_data_): New data member declaration.
(Target_arm::Target_arm): Initialize attributes_section_data_.  Change
initialization value of may_use_blx_ to false.
    (Target_arm::using_thumb2, Target_arm::using_thumb_only,
Target_arm::may_use_arm_nop, Target_arm::may_use_thumb2_nop): Use
object attributes to compute results instead of hard-coding.
(Target_arm::do_attribute_arg_type, Target_arm::do_attributes_order,
Target_arm::get_secondary_compatible_arch,
Target_arm::set_secondary_compatible_arch
Target_arm::tag_cpu_arch_combine, Target_arm::aeabi_enum_name,
Target_arm::tag_cpu_name_value, Target_arm::merge_object_attributes):

(Arm_relobj::do_read_symbols): Read attributes section if it exists.
(Arm_dynobj::do_read_symbols): Ditto.
(Target_arm::do_finalize_sections): Merge attributes sections from
input.  Check for BLX use after attributes section merging.
Fix __exidx_start and __exidx_end visibility.  Create an
.ARM.attributes section if necessary.
(Target_arm::get_secondary_compatible_arch,
Target_arm::set_secondary_compatible_arch,
Target_arm::tag_cpu_arch_combine, Target_arm::aeabi_enum_name,
