Create a new class of symbols internal to the linker. These symbols live
in the Loader, and are real smybols, but have no data, only size. After
symbols are allocated in the binary in asmb() a function is called that
is responsible for filling in the data.
This allows the linker to create large symbols, but not pay the price on
the heap memory.

In its current form, relocsym requires the Link context -- largely in a

the function, this CL separates out the link target. From here, the
number of touchpoints (and thread unsafe portions) of relocing symbols
can be mentally reasoned about.
(NB: My personal intent is to make this more universal -- passing only
the necessary variables/state to reloc functions. This is a taste to see

When building shared libraries, all symbols on Allsym are marked reachable.
What I didn't realize was that this includes the ".dup" symbols created when
"dupok" symbols are read from multiple package files. This breaks now because
deadcode makes some assumptions that fail for these ".dup" symbols, but in any
case was a bad idea -- I suspect this change makes libstd.so a bunch smaller,
but creating it was broken before this CL so I can't be sure.
This change simply stops adding these symbols to Allsym, which might make some
of the many iterations over Allsym the linker does a touch quicker, although
that's not the motivation here.
Add a test that no symbols called ".dup" makes it into the runtime shared
