Fix --defsym to copy symbol attributes.
Alan Modra committed a patch to Gnu ld to fix a problem encountered on
PPC where the --defsym option wasn't copying the st_other bits to the
newly-defined symbol.

Gold has the same problem, and additionally wasn't copying the symbol type.
This patch fixes both problems, by copying the symbol type, visibility, and
the remaining st_other bits to the new symbol for --defsym=sym1=sym2
assignments.
