--- Comment #3 from Fangrui Song <i at maskray dot me> ---
We don't have precedent for +flag or -flag. Isn't it an overkill to invent the
+- prefix and use +exclude and -exclude?

Other than .debug_*.dwo and an LLVM extension .linker-options, I can't think of
any use cases of SHF_EXCLUDE. Nobody will --set-section-flags on .debug_*.dwo .
I'd prefer treating 'exclude' like other flags such as
'alloc','readonly','data'... I can send a patch for this.
