The current file layout algorithm in llvm-objcopy is simple but
difficult to reason about. It also makes it very complicated to support
nested segments and to support segments that have offsets that come
before a point after the program headers. To support these cases and
simplify one of the most critical parts llvm-objcopy I rewrote the
layout algorithm. Laying out segments first solves most of the issues
encountered by the previous algorithm.

Sometimes LLD will produce a PT_LOAD segment that only covers the
headers (and covers no sections). GNU objcopy does not output the
segment contents for these sections. In particular this is an issue in
building magenta because the final link step for the kernel would
produce just such a PT_LOAD segment. This change is to support this case
and to match what GNU objcopy does in this case.

This change adds the "-O binary" flag which directs llvm-objcopy to
output the object file to the same format as GNU objcopy does when given
the flag "-O binary". This was done by splitting the Object class into
two subclasses ObjectELF and ObjectBianry which each output a different
format but relay on the same code to read in the Object in Object.

As discussed on llvm-dev I've implemented the first basic steps towards
llvm-objcopy/llvm-objtool (name pending).
This change adds the ability to copy (without modification) 64-bit
little endian ELF executables that have SHT_PROGBITS, SHT_NOBITS,
SHT_NULL and SHT_STRTAB sections.
