  // sections.
  //
  // The order of the sections in the script is arbitrary and may not agree with
  // compareSections. This means that we cannot easily define a strict weak
  // ordering. To see why, consider a comparison of a section in the script and
  // one not in the script. We have a two simple options:
  // * Make them equivalent (a is not less than b, and b is not less than a).
  //   The problem is then that equivalence has to be transitive and we can
  //   have sections a, b and c with only b in a script and a less than c
  //   which breaks this property.
  // * Use compareSectionsNonScript. Given that the script order doesn't have
  //   to match, we can end up with sections a, b, c, d where b and c are in the
  //   script and c is compareSectionsNonScript less than b. In which case d
  //   can be equivalent to c, a to b and d < a. As a concrete example:
  //   .a (rx) # not in script
  //   .b (rx) # in script
  //   .c (ro) # in script
  //   .d (ro) # not in script
  //
  // The way we define an order then is:
  // *  Sort only the orphan sections. They are in the end right now.
  // *  Move each orphan section to its preferred position. We try
  //    to put each section in the last position where it can share
  //    a PT_LOAD.
  //
  // There is some ambiguity as to where exactly a new entry should be
  // inserted, because Commands contains not only output section
  // commands but also other types of commands such as symbol assignment
  // expressions. There's no correct answer here due to the lack of the
  // formal specification of the linker script. We use heuristics to
