[Morello] - Got static linking support to the point that I can successfully link with LLD the coremark, dhrystone and EEMBC from the arran-toolchain. Not got any outstanding failures to investigate. - Altered LLD so a linker script is no longer necessary for newlib. - Started the process of rebasing and adding tests for all the fixes/hacks I needed to make to the linker work. - Aligned the base and limit of capabilities according to the incoming CHERI concentrate scheme. Interesting question of what should a linker do when alignment requirements on the base and limit cross section boundaries, and what are the responsibilities for an object producer when creating a section when the length of the capability is known at compile time.
