cmd/link: mmap object data

This resurrects CL 121198, except that this time we map read-only.

In case that we need to apply relocations to the symbol's
content that is backed by read-only memory, we do our own copy-
on-write. This can happen if we failed to mmap the output file,
or we build for Wasm.
