[PATCH RFC 15/17] arm64: text replication: include most of read-only data as well

Include as much of the read-only data in the replication as we can
without needing to move away from the generic RO_DATA() macro in
the linker script.
Unfortunately, the read-only data section is immedaitely followed
by the read-only after init data with no page alignment, which
means we can't have separate mappings for the read-only data
section and everything else. Changing that would mean replacing
the generic RO_DATA() macro which increases the maintenance burden.
however, this is likely not worth the effort as the majority of
read-only data will be covered.
