Objects with unused program headers copied by objcopy would always have
nonzero values for program header offset and program header entry size.
While technically valid, this atypical behavior triggers warnings in some
tools. This change sets the two fields to zero when the program header is
unused, better fitting the general expectations for unused program header
data.
Section headers behaved somewhat similarly (though only with the entry size),
and are fixed in this revision as well.

ubsan caught an issue I made where I was converting a null pointer to a
reference.
elf utils implements a particularly extreme form of stripping that I'd
like to support. eu-strip has an option called "strip-sections" that
removes all section headers and leaves only program headers and the
segment data. I have implemented this option partly as a test but mainly
because in Fuchsia we would like to use this option to minimize the size
of our executables. The other strip options that are on my list include
--strip-all and --strip-debug. This is a preliminary implementation that
I'd like to start using in Fuchsia builds if possible. This change
implements such a stripping option for llvm-objcopy
