   Stop the BFD library from issuing a warning message when processing allocated sections in debuginfo files that lie outside of any loadable segment.

   bfd/ChangeLog
   PR 24717
   * elf.c (is_debuginfo_file): New function.
   (assign_file_positions_for_non_load_sections): Do not warn about
   allocated sections outside of loadable segments if they are found
   in a debuginfo file.
   * elf-bfd.h (is_debuginfo_file): Prototype.

   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1553086
   * elfread.c (elf_symfile_segments): Omit "Loadable section ...
     outside of ELF segments" warning for debugin
