TEXT_MAIN, DATA_MAIN and friends are defined differently depending on

There's no technical reason for that beyond voodoo coding. Keeping the

Unify the macros by using the same input section patterns across all

Certain config options which enable -ffunction-sections have a custom
version of the TEXT_TEXT macro:
.text.[0-9a-zA-Z_]*
That unintentionally matches the thunk sections, causing them to get
grouped with normal text rather than being handled by their intended
rule later in the script:
*(.text.*_indirect_*)
Fix that by adding another period to the thunk section names, following

The run_readelf() function reads the entire output of readelf into a

When this variable is subsequently passed to sed via `echo "${out}"`, it
