+/// Add a synthetic object file that contains reference to all symbols that we want to expose to
+/// the linker.
+///
+/// Background: we implement rlibs as static library (archives). Linkers treat archives
+/// differently from object files: all object files participate in linking, while archives will
+/// only participate in linking if they can satisfy at least one undefined reference (version
+/// scripts doesn't count). This causes `#[no_mangle]` or `#[used]` items to be ignored by the
+/// linker, and since they never participate in the linking, using `KEEP` in the linker scripts
+/// can't keep them either. This causes #47384.
+///
+/// To keep them around, we could use `--whole-archive` and equivalents to force rlib to
+/// participate in linking like object files, but this proves to be expensive (#93791). Therefore
+/// we instead just introduce an undefined reference to them. This could be done by `-u` command
+/// line option to the linker or `EXTERN(...)` in linker scripts, however they does not only
+/// introduce an undefined reference, but also make them the GC roots, preventing `--gc-sections`
+/// from removing them, and this is especially problematic for embedded programming where every
+/// byte counts.
+///
+/// This method creates a synthetic object file, which contains undefined references to all symbols
+/// that are necessary for the linking. They are only present in symbol table but not actually
+/// used in any sections, so the linker will therefore pick relevant rlibs for linking, but
+/// unused `#[no_mangle]` or `#[used]` can still be discard by GC sections.
