for ELF, each {section name, hash} pair denotes a distinct section (when using
SHF_GROUP). Linker's deduplicate the group based on the hash, then squish all
the distinct sections with the same name together. (same system that powers
-ffunction-sections -fno-unique-section-names - even though each function
section is called ".text", because they have different hashes and use
SHF_GROUP, they are distinct sections in the object file)
