/// This memory manager allocates all section memory as read-write.  The
/// RuntimeDyld will copy JITed section memory into these allocated blocks
/// and perform any necessary linking and relocations.
///
/// Any client using this memory manager MUST ensure that section-specific
/// page permissions have been applied before attempting to execute functions
/// in the JITed object.  Permissions can be applied either by calling
/// MCJIT::finalizeObject or by calling SectionMemoryManager::finalizeMemory
/// directly.  Clients of MCJIT should call MCJIT::finalizeObject.
