# This function merges multiple objects into a single relocatable object
#                     cc -r obj1.o obj2.o -o obj.o
# A relocatable object is an object file that is not fully linked into an
# executable or a shared library. It is an intermediate file format that can
# be passed into the linker.
# A crt object has arch-specific code and arch-agnostic code. To reduce code
# duplication, the implementation is split into multiple units. As a result,
# we need to merge them into a single relocatable object.
