auto merge of #7958 : kemurphy/rust/link-section, r=alexcrichton

This allows for control over the section placement of static, static
mut, and fn items.  One caveat is that if a static and a static mut are
placed in the same section, the static is declared first, and the static
mut is assigned to, the generated program crashes.  For example:

#[link_section=".boot"]
static foo : uint = 0xdeadbeef;

#[link_section=".boot"]
static mut bar : uint = 0xcafebabe;

Declaring bar first would mark .bootdata as writable, preventing the
crash when bar is written to.
