Set sh_addr for regions that are not allocated. Some relocations might
depend on this.
The fault in my case occurs when setting CONFIG_HAVE_CXX=y. In this case,
the .ctor and .dtor sections do not get allocated, but the crt code
depends on linker defined symbols _sctors/_ectors etc. These generate PC
relative relocations and thus, the .ctor and .dtor output sections need
an output VMA even though nothing is there. Otherwise the relocations will
point to god knows where (in my case to address 0).
The problem results in full system crash later:
elf_symvalue: Other: 00000000+00000001=00000001

elf_relocateadd: ERROR: Section 2 reloc 52: Relocation failed: -22
The RISC-V elf64 linker does not like the uninitialized PC relative
relocation entries, as the relocation offset cannot be reached with
with the RV64 instruction set.
