[dev.link] cmd/link: make symbol attribute setting more reliable

For dupOK symbols, their attributes should be OR'd. Most of the
attributes are expected to be set consistently across multiple
definitions, but UsedInIface must be OR'd, and for alignment we
need to pick the largest one. Currently the attributes are not
always OR'd, depending on addSym returning true or false. This
doesn't cause any real problem, but it would be a problem if we
make type descriptor symbols content-addressable.

This CL removes the second result of addSym, and lets preloadSyms
always set the attributes. Also removes the alignment handling on
addSym, handles it in preloadSyms only.
