powerpc64 fails new ld-elf/warn2 test


The new warning section test fails on powerpc64 and spu.  One reason
is that the warning section is not stripped from the output, due to
these targets sizing output sections early.  (Actually, powerpc64
doesn't size sections early on the testcase, but does so in other
situations.)  Another reason for the failure was that powerpc64
creates another output section and the global sym defined in the
warning section ends up being relative to that section rather than
.text.  This patch fixes both of these problems.

ld/
	* emultempl/elf32.em (gld*_before_allocation): Adjust output section
	size for warning sections.
ld/testsuite/
	* ld-elf/group.ld: Handle .rodata.brlt for powerpc64.
