Summary:
Currently these function return the raw content of the appropriate table
header, which means they are relative to the DW_AT_{loc,rng}list_base,
and one has to relocate them in order to do anything.
This changes the functions to perform the relocation themselves, which
seems more clearer, particularly as they are sitting right next to the
find{Rng,Loc}listFromOffset functions, but one *cannot* simply take the
result of these functions and take pass them there.
The only effect of this patch is to change what value is dumped for the
DW_AT_ranges attribute, which I think is for the better, as previously
the values appeared to point into thin air.
(The main reason I am looking at this is because I was trying to
implement equivalent functionality in lldb's DWARFUnit, and was stumped
by this behavior.

This makes the offsets larger (since they are further from the base
address) but those are in the .dwo - and allows removing addresses and
relocations from the .o file.
This could be built into the AddressPool more fundamentally, perhaps -
when you ask for an AddressPool entry you could say "or give me some
other entry and an offset I need to use" - though what to do about
situations where the first use of an address in a section is not the
earliest address in that section... is tricky.
At least with range addresses we can be fairly sure we've seen the
earliest address first because we see the start address for the
function.
