Do not split mergeable sections if they are gc'ed.

Previously, mergeable section's constructors did more than just
setting member variables; it split section contents into small
pieces. It is not always computationally cheap task because if
the section is a mergeable string section, it needs to scan the
entire section to split them by NUL characters.

If a section would be thrown away by GC, that cost ended up
being a waste of time. It is going to be larger problem if the
section is compressed -- the whole time to uncompress it and
split it up is going to be a waste.

Luckily, we can defer section splitting after GC. We just have
to remember which offsets are in use during GC and apply that later.
This patch implements it.
