Subject: [PATCH] gold: Place .note.gnu.property section before other note
 sections

Place the .note.gnu.property section before all other note sections to
avoid being placed between other note sections with different alignments.

	PR gold/28494
	* layout.cc (Layout::create_note): Set order to ORDER_PROPERTY_NOTE
	for the .note.gnu.property section.
	* layout.h (Output_section_order): Add ORDER_PROPERTY_NOTE.

(cherry picked from commit f85dcfc3af9cf7c2859241253f1d37b1133abea2)
