[AMDGPU] Set metadata access for explicit section
Summary:
This patch provides a means to set Metadata section kind
for a global variable, if its explicit section name is
prefixed with ".AMDGPU.metadata."
This could be useful to make the global variable go to
an ELF section without any section flags set.
