rucc-asm 0.10.5

//! What an assembler is told about a function or a variable, which is the object format's answer
//! rather than the machine's.
//!
//! Design: `spec/11-asm-objects-debug.md` section 11.3, which is about the object files
//! themselves. The directives here are the same facts said in text: which section code and data go
//! in, how a symbol is spelled, which symbols leave the file, and where each one ends.
//!
//! They are not the same on the three formats and the differences are not cosmetic. A Mach-O
//! symbol carries an underscore in front of the C name and an ELF one does not, so a listing that
//! got that wrong would fail to link against every library on the machine. A local label is
//! spelled `.L` on ELF and COFF and `L` on Mach-O, and a label that is not spelled the local way
//! ends up in the symbol table, where it is a name a debugger and a backtrace will show. And ELF
//! wants a marker saying the stack is not executable, whose absence makes it executable, which
//! section 11.3 calls out as a real and recurring security bug.
