compress .gnu.debuglto_.debug_* sections if requested
Right now, when using LTO, the intermediate object files do contain
debug info in sections starting with .gnu.debuglto_ prefix and are
not compressed when --compress-debug-sections is used.
It's a mistake and we can save quite some disk space. The following
example comes from tramp3d when the corresponding LTO sections
are compressed with zlib:
$ bloaty tramp3d-v4-v2.o -- tramp3d-v4.o

bfd/ChangeLog:
* elf.c (_bfd_elf_make_section_from_shdr): Compress all debug
info sections.
gas/ChangeLog:
* write.c (compress_debug): Compress also ".gnu.debuglto_.debug_"
if the compression algorithm is different from zlib-gnu.
