[lld][WebAssembly] Delay the merging of data section when dynamic linking

With dynamic linking we have the current limitation that there can be
only a single active data segment (since we use __memory_base as the
load address and we can't do arithmetic in constant expresions).

This change delays the merging of active segments until a little later
in the linking process which means that the grouping of data by section,
and the magic __start/__end symbols work as expected under dynamic
linking.

LLVM Linker (lld)

This directory and its subdirectories contain source code for the LLVM Linker, a modular cross platform linker which is built as part of the LLVM compiler infrastructure project.

lld is open source software. You may freely distribute it under the terms of the license agreement found in LICENSE.txt.

Benchmarking

In order to make sure various developers can evaluate patches over the same tests, we create a collection of self contained programs.
