arm: move _end to linker symbols
commit 6e2228fb052b ("Merge patch series "Clean up arm linker scripts")
was cleaning up linker scripts for armv7 and v8 but was leaving
_end and __secure_stack_start/end.
commit d0b5d9da5de2 ("arm: make _end compiler-generated")
was moving _end to be compiler generated. _end is defined as c variable
in its own section to force the compiler emit relative a reference.
However, defining those in the linker script will do the same thing
since [0].
So let's remove the special sections from the linker scripts, the
variable definitions from sections.c and define them as a symbols.
It's worth noting that _image_binary_end symbol is now redundant and
can be removed in the future.
- SPL
The .end section has been removed from the new binary
