Be less clever about .rel.ro avoidance.

This restores the original version of delocate.go, with the subsequent
bugfixes patched in. With this, the FIPS module builds with GCC and
Clang, with and without optimizations. I did patch over a variant of the
macro though, since it was otherwise really wordy.

Playing games with sections was a little overly clever and relied on the
compiler not performing a number of optimizations. Clang blew threw all
of those assumptions.

BoringSSL

BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.

Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.

Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.

BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.

Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
