Section handling: finer control of variable initialization
Distinguish between: - uninitialized variables, which can go in COMM if supported - variables initialized with fixed, numeric quantities, which can go in a readonly section if "const" - variables initialized with symbol addresses which may need relocation, which cannot go in a readonly section even if "const", but can go in a special "const_data" section. Also: on macOS, use ".const" instead of ".literal8" for literals, as not all literals have size 8.
