A new set of comprehensive tests for PE COFF weak external symbols has been added to the linker test suite. These tests cover various interactions between weak and strong symbols, including scenarios with archive files, weak declarations with no fallback, and different combinations of weak/defined symbols. The suite aims to ensure robust handling of PE COFF weak externals.
