Fix an abort triggered when objcopy is used to set the "share" section flag on an ELF section.

binutils* objcopy.c (check_new_section_flags): New function.  Reject the
SEC_COFF_SHARED flag if the target is not a COFF binary.
(copy_object): Call check_new_section_flags.
(setup_section): Likewise.
* doc/binutils.texi (objcopy): Add a note that the 'share' section
flag cannot be applied to ELF binaries.

bfd * elf.c (_bfd_elf_set_section_contents): Replace call to abort
with error messages and failure return values.
