[PING^2][PATCH 0/6] Haiku/testsuite: Enable ELF tests

This patch series enables ELF tests for the Haiku operating system in the binutils testsuite. The series includes preparatory changes to avoid regressions across different Haiku targets. The proposer notes that most changes are testsuite-related, with one addressing missing veneer sections in the ARM/Haiku linker scripts. The approved non-ARM patches will be committed, and the ARM maintainers will handle the ARM-specific fixes.
