Why are the sections used internally by Objective-C marked by Clang with `no_dead_strip`?
For example `__DATA,__objc_classrefs,regular,no_dead_strip` in [here](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/7836603062ea9bb519bb68187024a58bb7c2f31b/clang/lib/CodeGen/CGObjCMac.cpp#L7450).
It seems like that might prevent (like the name says) certain forms of dead stripping of Objective-C code? Though I couldn't find an example of this, in practice the linker seems to remove it anyhow?
