symbols: check table sizes don't change between linking passes 2 and 3

While sizes (and possibly positions) of the symbol table related symbols
(and as a result other ones) are expected to change from linking pass 1
to pass 2, no such change should happen anymore from pass 2 to pass 3, or
else the internally recorded symbol table wouldn't represent the ELF or
PE/COFF ones.

For comparing to be actually useful, i.e. most notably also covering the
last of the arrays emitted, symbol sizes need establishing. Make use of
the xen/linkage.h machinery to achieve that.
