ld: correct description of behavior for symbols redefined by script

Browse Source 
Prior to 89753bbf81 ("Warn when a script redefines a symbol") there
was no diagnostic at all. As of that commit, it's a warning, not an
error.

In this example, if the program defines @samp{_etext} (with a leading
underscore), the linker will give a multiple definition error. If, on
the other hand, the program defines @samp{etext} (with no leading
underscore), the linker will give a multiple definition diagnostic. If,
on the other hand, the program defines @samp{etext} (with no leading
underscore), the linker will silently use the definition in the program.
If the program references @samp{etext} but does not define it, the
linker will use the definition in the linker script.
