Always create dynamic sections for -E/--dynamic-list

In embedded environments, including boot loaders, the non-PIC executable
needs to export its symbols to modules loaded in the future.  We should
always create dynamic sections for -E/--dynamic-list.

bfd/

	PR ld/19617
	* elflink.c (elf_link_add_object_symbols): Always create dynamic
	sections for -E/--dynamic-list.

ld/

	PR ld/19617
	* testsuite/ld-elf/pr19617.s: New file.
	* testsuite/ld-elf/pr19617a.d: Likewise.
	* testsuite/ld-elf/pr19617b.d: Likewise.
	* testsuite/ld-elf/pr19617c.d: Likewise.
