91e61ec4b2 use the NULL section instead of offset == 0
This change makes it possible to use the regular API to build up
elf files which include the file header.

1676247836 fix alignment of segments during saving -> copied elfs are working
The old implementation aligned the segment start. However, the
intended behaviour is to align the offset and the vaddr
(p_vaddr % p_align == p_offset % p_align). This is required for the
loader which can then operate on memory pages.

b91a43b378 special support for PHDR segments and segments which include the elf header
Only elf files with strange GNU_RELRO segments fail the load, save, cycle.

It would maybe a good idea to separate the layout functionality from the
current save. The current coupling of layout and save make it
impossible to build layouts which contain the elf header via the public
API.

c743d0bf74 separated layout generation and saving
Many example elfs (hello_32, hello_64, asm ...) require that the
first section directly follows the program header table. The
section header is then placed between segments or at the end.

This change prepares the late placement of section header table.

55c2841e47 changed order in which the sections are emitted
The fact that segments can contain header information as well as
sections requires that sections within segments are emitted first.

0ece76b5eb rewrote the segment save logic to not only care about alignment
The initial implementation only made sure that all sections and segments
are properly aligned. This is enough for simple embedded applications
but can not deal with more complex layouts.

The new implementation should be more generic given that it respects the
virtual addresses of the individual sections.

One thing which is currently not supported by this rewrite are segments
which contain the program/segment header or even the whole elf header.

e5592ddfdd fix: make segment loading similar to readelf's algorithm
ALLOC sections are now matched against the virtual address space of
the segment. Non ALLOC sections still use the offset approach.

22bd7ba77d fix: static class member MAX_DATA_ENTRIES is not defined -> linker error
Static class members usually have to be defined explicitly which plays not
well with header only libraries. Moving the constant into the ELFIO scope
works around that problem.

The problem only shows up at -O0. Higher optimisations levels manage to
completely remove the references to the static member.

1d2930abc7 redesigned save_segments_and_their_sections
We have some elf files where a section (.ARM.exidx) is located in multiple segments.
To keep this property it is necessary to keep track of the emitted sections.
Furthermore, the correct sequence for the segment emission has to be determined.
This is done by postponing segments which are actually a subsequence of another segment.

Additionally the alignment is not considered as part of the file size of a segment anymore.
