Consolidate constructor/destructor sections in H2 picolibc template#1424
Merged

Conversation
Merge .preinit_array, .ctors, and .init_array into a single .init_array output section, and .dtors and .fini_array into a single .fini_array output section in the static-executable-h2-picolibc linker script template. This prevents the linker from placing orphan sections between the entries within the [__bothinit_array_start, __bothinit_array_end) window. An orphan landing inside that window would be walked by __libc_init_array() and called as a bogus constructor function pointer, causing a fault at startup.
