The previous commit(*) merged .rel* and .dyn* into .rodata, and this made ld to generate the wrong size for .rela* sections that covered other unrelated sections. When the EFI image was loaded, _relocate() went through the unexpected data and may cause unexpected crash. This commit moves .rel* and .dyn* out of .rodata in the ld script but also moves the related variables, such as _evrodata, _rodata_size, and _rodata_vsize, to the end of the new .dyn section, so that the crafted pe-coff section header for .rodata still covers our new .rela and .dyn sections.
