GNU's --strip-all doesn't strip as aggressively as it could in general.
Currently llvm-objcopy copies the exact behavoir of GNU's --strip-all.
eu-strip is used as a drop in replacement for GNU strip/objcopy in many many
places without issue. eu-strip removes non-allocated sections and keeps
.gnu.warning* sections. Because --strip-all will likely be the most widely
used stripping option we should make --strip-all as aggressive as it can safely
be. Since we have evidence from eu-strip that this is a safe option we should
allow it. For those that might still have an issue afterwards I've added
--strip-all-gnu as an exact drop in replacement for GNU's --strip-all as well.
