Generate RelocatableReadOnlyData as .data

The GNU linker expects read-only sections to be relocation
free. Presumably because the dynamic linker maps all read-only
sections as read-only mmaps and hence can't do relocations.

If we want text-relocation-free shared libraries we have to put all
relocations into writable sections, hence .data.  See
