cmd/link: trailing padding after "Go" in ELF note name

[mdempsky]

https://www.sco.com/developers/gabi/latest/ch5.pheader.html#note_section says [emphasis added]:

namesz and name
The first namesz bytes in name contain a null-terminated character representation of the entry's owner or originator. There is no formal mechanism for avoiding name conflicts. By convention, vendors use their own name, such as XYZ Computer Company, as the identifier. If no name is present, namesz contains 0. Padding is present, if necessary, to ensure 8 or 4-byte alignment for the descriptor (depending on whether the file is a 64-bit or 32-bit object). Such padding is not included in namesz.

It looks like we get this right for the "NetBSD" tag, where we include a single nul-terminator character within the name (as measured by namesz), but then include an extra padding zero-byte for alignment.

However, for the "Go" tag, we include an extra nul-terminator within the name itself. The second nul-terminator should actually be padding.

Hello! I've created this small commit, which I think might be the fix.

As I'm not very experienced with ELF definitions, do you mind doing a sanity-check? If I'm on the right track I will open a CL.

Seems fine. I don't think you need ELF_NOTE_GO_NAMESZ.
