Summary: This temporarily disabled split-sections again on Windows because of the overhead in linking it introduces. Unfortunately because BFD is so slow a testsuite run gets almost 2x slower. Simply linking Hello World takes an unacceptable long time. So for now, it'll be disabled as we look into different linkers such as LLD.
