This adds a linker flag and necessary changes to linker scripts
so that linker will warn about orphan sections.
Relates to #5534.

This allows the SoC to specify some additional linker script
fragments into the bss, data and read-only data sections.
For example, the Cypress PSOC6 has a few input sections that
must be put into bss and data sections. Without specifying
these in the linker script, they are consider orphan sections
and the placement is based on linker heuristic which is
arbitrary.
POSIX is not supported as the main linker script is
provided by the host system's binutils and we have no control
over it. Also, currently Xtensa SoCs have their own linker
scripts so there is no need to this feature.

The .eh_frame symbol was causing __data_rom_start to contain the wrong
offset into the ROM, resulting in corrupt data copied into RAM by
_data_copy(). Fix by placing the .eh_frame in the .text section as is
done in include/arch/x86/linker.ld

The entry point can and therefore should be set by linker
scripts. Whenever possible one should express things in the source
language, be it .c or .ld, and not in code generators or in the build
system.
This patch removes the flag -eCONFIG_KERNEL_ENTRY from the linker's
command line and replaces it with the linker script command
ENTRY(CONFIG_KERNEL_ENTRY)

In order for OpenOCD to have a high-level view of an RTOS, it uses the
GDB protocol to obtain symbols from the system.
The GDB protocol, however, does not allow obtaining fields from
structures directly, and hardcoding offsets is not only brittle (due to
possibly different architectures or changes in the code), it's also
infeasible considering Zephyr is highly-configurable and parts of key
structs can be compiled in or out.
Export an array with offsets for these key structs. Also add a version
element in that array to allow changes in those structs.

Added a linker script that shall be common to most riscv SOCs.
Linker script also accounts for execution in place in ROM, when
CONFIG_XIP is set.
Nonetheless, riscv32 SOCs (like pulpino) requiring a different
system layout can still define their own linker script.
