## Message

```
compiler: make all Zig-provided libraries use -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections

We already did this for some of them; this just makes us consistent. Doing this
gives the linker more flexibility to rearrange code/data, but more importantly,
allows --gc-sections to get rid of all the unused code, which is a real concern
for these libraries in particular.
