Fangrui Song cd6ae7ea54 Set the retain attribute on _elf_set_element if CC supports [BZ #27492]
So that text_set_element/data_set_element/bss_set_element defined
variables will be retained by the linker.

Note: 'used' and 'retain' are orthogonal: 'used' makes sure the variable
will not be optimized out; 'retain' prevents section garbage collection
if the linker support SHF_GNU_RETAIN.

GNU ld 2.37 and LLD 13 will support -z start-stop-gc which allow C
identifier name sections to be GCed even if there are live
__start_/__stop_ references.

Without the change, there are some static linking problems, e.g.
_IO_cleanup (libio/genops.c) may be discarded by ld --gc-sections, so
stdout is not flushed on exit.

Note: GCC may warning 'retain' attribute ignored while __has_attribute(retain)
is 1 (https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=99587).
