This patch marks Go type descriptors as artificial.  I noticed this
because they were being marked as STB_GNU_UNIQUE, and that was causing
the version of glibc that I am using to not execute COPY relocs for
them.  I'm not really sure whether that is right or wrong, or possibly
fixed in a later version, but it's certainly undesirable in this case.
It doesn't happen for C++ type reflection structures because they are
marked as artificial and gcc does not mark artificial read-only as
STB_GNU_UNIQUE (see ASM_DECLARE_OBJECT_NAME in config/elfos.h).  Go type
descriptors should be marked as artificial anyhow, so this patch is
correct and as a bonus fixes the problem with COPY relocs.  I also added
a #include in preparation for the merge with gcc mainline.  Committed to
gccgo branch.
