cmd/link/internal/ld: fix overlapping sections in ELF relro links

This patch fixes a problem with how the .dynamic and .got sections are
handled during PIE linking on ELF targets. These sections were being
given addresses that overlapped with the .data.rel.ro section, which
resulted in binaries that worked correctly but confused the binutils
"strip" tool (which, confusingly, produced non-working stripped output
when used on Go PIE binaries without returning a non-zero exit
status). The new RELRO PIE code path preserves .dynamic and .got as
their own independent sections, while ensuring that they make it into
the RELRO segment. A new test verifies that we can successfully strip
and run Go PIE binaries, and also that we don't wind up with any
sections whose address ranges overlap.

Fixes #67261.
Updates #45681.
