Summary
In GNU objcopy, symbols referenced by relocations are retained. Our COFF
(https://reviews.llvm.org/D56480) and Mach-O
(https://reviews.llvm.org/D75104) ports port the behavior, but the ELF
port doesn't.
 
This PR implements the behavior for ELF.
Close #47468 (tcl has a use case that requires `strip -x tclStubLib.o`
to strip local symbols not referenced by relocations.)
