image_copy_start/end are defined as c variables in order to force the compiler emit relative references. However, defining those within a section definition will do the same thing since [0].
So let's remove the special sections from the linker scripts, the variable definitions from sections.c and define them as a symbols within a section.
[0] binutils commit 6b3b0ab89663 ("Make linker assigned symbol dynamic only for shared object")
