7e47ef281e linker: cpp: Fix C++ exception handling info section linking
The `.eh_frame_hdr` and `.eh_frame` ROM sections, which contain read-
only C++ exception handling information, are currently specified in
`cplusplus-ram.ld`, and this can cause the linker output location
counter to take a ROM region address while in the RAM region.

This commit relocates these sections to `cplusplus-rom.ld` in order to
prevent the linker output location counter from getting corrupted.

For more details, refer to the issue #35972.

acda9bf9ce linker-tool-gcc: revise for MMU support
We need to do a few things differently if we are to support
a virtual memory map, i.e. CONFIG_MMU where CONFIG_KERNEL_VM_BASE
is not the same as CONFIG_SRAM_BASE_ADDRESS.

 - All sections must be specified with a VMA and LMA, where
   VMA is the virtual address and LMA is the physical memory
   location.
 - All sections must be specified with ALIGN_WITH_INPUT to
   keep VMAs and LMAs synchronized

To do this, the existing linker macros need some adjustment:

 - GROUP_LINK_IN undefined when CONFIG_KERNEL_VM_BASE is not
   the same as CONFIG_SRAM_BASE_ADDRESS.
 - New macro GROUP_ROM_LINK_IN for text/rodata sections
 - New macro GROUP_NOLOAD_LINK_IN for bss/noinit sections
 - Implicit ALIGN_WITH_INPUT for all sections

GROUP_FOLLOWS_AT is unused anywhere in the kernel for years
now and has been removed.

ff36fc7d67 linker: cxx: Include .gcc_except_table sections
Include .gcc_except_table (sub-)sections in linker files to support C++
with exceptions enabled. If these sections are not mapped warnings will
be generated for orphaned sections at link time.
