[patch] AVR: Tidy bfd/elf32-avr.c
Georg-Johann Lay has submitted a code cleanup patch for bfd/elf32-avr.c that refactors the elf32_avr_relax_section function. The changes improve readability by introducing helper functions and reducing indentation levels. The patch also adopts C99 features like bool, uses ARRAY_SIZE where applicable, and clarifies naming conventions for structs and objects. The changes are a no-op in terms of functionality, and the testsuite remains unaffected.
