PR 17287, DT_NEEDED of unneeded libraries affects --as-needed


Committed.  htab->needed has entries added to it before we decide an
--as-needed library is going to be needed.  Clearly those that aren't
needed shouldn't affect later linker decisions.

	PR 17287
bfd/
	* elflink.c (on_needed_list): Only consider libraries that have
	been loaded.
ld/
	* ld.texinfo (--as-needed): Clarify that references from libraries
	must be from needed libraries.
ld/testsuite/
	* ld-plugin/needed3.c: New file.
	* ld-elf/shared.exp: Add needed3 test.
