            Bug ID: 18372
           Summary: Discarded PE resource sections improperly handled,
                    assert error in peXXigen.c
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.26 (HEAD)

Ignore discarded PE rsrc sections

If you /DISCARD/ a resource section in linker script, it is not properly
ignored when merging resources and throws this assert:

i686-w64-mingw32-ld: BFD (GNU Binutils) 2.25 assertion fail peigen.c:4146

Very edge case but I unfortunately hit it. Attached patch ignores these
sections.
