We used to keep both a section and a pointer to the first symbol.
The oddity of keeping a section for dynamic symbols is because there is
a DT_SYMTAB but no DT_SYMTABZ, so to print the table we have to find the
size via a section table.
The reason for still keeping a pointer to the first symbol is because we
want to be able to print relocation tables even if the section table is
missing (it is mandatory only for files used in linking).
With this patch we keep just a DynRegionInfo. This then requires
changing a few places that were asking for a Elf_Shdr but actually just
needed the first symbol.
The test change is to delete the program header pointer.
Now that we use the information of both DT_SYMTAB and .dynsym, we don't
depend on the sh_entsize of .dynsym if we see DT_SYMTAB.
Note: It is questionable if it is worth it putting the effort to report
broken sh_entsize given that in files with no section table we have to
assume it is sizeof(Elf_Sym), but that is for another change.

This adds support for finding the dynamic table and dynamic symbol table via
the section table or the program header table. If there's no section table an
attempt is made to figure out the length of the dynamic symbol table.

This also improves the logic of what is an error:
* getSection(uint_32): only return an error if the index is out of bounds. The
index 0 corresponds to a perfectly valid entry.
* getSection(Elf_Sym): Returns null for symbols that normally don't have
sections and error for out of bound indexes.
In many places this just moves the report_fatal_error up the stack, but those
can then be fixed in smaller patches.

This moves the error checking for string tables to getStringTable which returns
an ErrorOr<StringRef>.
This improves error checking, makes it uniform across all string tables and
makes it possible to check them once instead of once per name.

This patch changes getRelocationAddend to use ErrorOr and considers it an error
to try to get the addend of a REL section.
If, for example, a x86_64 file has a REL section, that file is corrupted and
we should reject it.
Using ErrorOr is not ideal since we check the section type once per relocation
instead of once per section.
Checking once per section would involve getRelocationAddend just asserting and
callers checking the section before iterating over the relocations.
In any case, this is an improvement and includes a test.
