[PATCH v4 14/17] arm/build: Warn on orphan section placement

We don't want to depend on the linker's orphan section placement
heuristics as these can vary between linkers, and may change between
versions. All sections need to be explicitly named in the linker
script.

Specifically, this would have made a recently fixed bug very obvious:

ld: warning: orphan section `.fixup' from `arch/arm/lib/copy_from_user.o' being placed in section `.fixup'

Discard unneeded sections .iplt, .rel.iplt, .igot.plt, and .modinfo.

Add missing text stub sections .vfp11_veneer and .v4_bx.

Add debug sections explicitly.

Finally enable orphan section warning.
