Vectors are needed by the CPU, but they don't need to be accessed by Rockbox.
Without the KEEP(), they can be removed when liking with --gc-sections,
creating a broken binary without any warnings. This tells the linker to not
remove them. It should enable use of --gc-sections for all targets. When not
using --gc-sections, this does not change the binary.

* Add wildcards to various sections placements a la *(".text") => "*(.text*)"
* Remove hacky bits from those linker scripts (no problem encountered testing)
* Change section for asm functions from .<section> to .<section>.<function>
so that -ffunction-sections works for those asm file too.

This is related to gdb, and gdb can only work on SH and ifp
This was mistakenly kept when app.lds was forked for each SoC
Side-effect: fix DEBUG builds when the rockbox binary is expected to
be loaded at the start of DRAM and there is no runtime relocation

Introduce a new .init section for initialisation code, so that it can be copied to an area which is later overwritten before calling. The stack/bss can then overwrite that code, effectively freeing the code size that the initialisation routines need. Gives a few kB ram usage back.
Only implemented for PP and as3525 so far. More targets could be added, as well as more functions.
