[Bug ld/12029] New: docus error for symbol unmangling support in VERSION commands

[richard dot barton at arm dot com]

The documentation for the VERSIONS linker script command (ld docs s3.9) has a
mistake in the example for the C++ unmangled name support.

(from the big example at the top:)

         extern "C++" {
                 ns::*;
                 "int f(int, double)";
              }

The unmangled name should not contain the function return type as this will not
match. ld simply does not apply the correct binding to the f symbol.
