When -z separate-code, which is enabled by default for Linux/x86, is
used to create executable, ld won't place any data in the code-only
PT_LOAD segment. If there are no data sections placed before the
code-only PT_LOAD segment, the program headers won't be mapped into
any PT_LOAD segment. When the executable tries to access it (based
on the program header address passed in AT_PHDR), it will lead to
segfault. This patch inserts a GNU_PROPERTY_X86_ISA_1_USED note if
there may be no data sections before the text section so that the
first PT_LOAD segment won't be code-only and will contain the program
header.
Testcases are adjusted to either pass "-z noseparate-code" to ld or
discard the .note.gnu.property section. A Linux/x86 run-time test is
added.

* elfxx-x86.c (_bfd_x86_elf_link_setup_gnu_properties): If the
separate code program header is needed, make sure that the first
read-only PT_LOAD segment has no code by adding a
GNU_PROPERTY_X86_ISA_1_USED note.
