Fix error messages related to undefined symbols in lwlink Make lwlink not complain about seciton base and length symbols. Also silence duplicate complaints about undefined symbols. There is no need to complain about undefined symbols during the file/section resolution stage! If they are truly undefined, they'll still be undefined at the reference resolution stage.

>A raw binary is simply a string of bytes. There are no headers or other
niceties. Both LWLINK and LWASM support generating raw binaries. ORG directives
in the source code only serve to set the addresses that will be used for
symbols but otherwise have no direct impact on the resulting binary.</P
