[binutils-gdb] Remove OBJSTAT and OBJSTATS macros

commit 9b9cbb09d85e40adb9a22f3c97de74b6c9c5e205

    Remove OBJSTAT and OBJSTATS macros
    
    The OBJSTATS macro seems pretty pointless, so I removed it.  Then when
    looking at the OBJSTAT macro as well, I decided to remove it and also
    struct objstats.
    
    After this patch, symbols are allocated using a template method that
    automatically updates the n_syms member.  This cleans up the code a
    little.
    
    Also, nothing ever set objstats::sz_strtab, so this is removed.
    
    Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 43.
