detects and uses the gas section merge support. As a result, a whole bunch
of new sections arrive, including .rodata.str1.8, which was not included
in our custom ldscript.ia64. The result was a loader binary that EFI
rejected.
While here, collect the loader shell commands linker set and include it
in the data area rather than having its own section.
/boot/loader.efi was the last holdout for having a 100% self built ia64
system.
