We need to embed certain metadata along with a binary image when we wish to perform a device-linking job on it. Currently this metadata was embedded in the section name of the data itself. This worked, but made adding new metadata very difficult and didn't work if the user did any sort of section linking. This patch introduces a custom binary format for bundling offloading metadata with a device object file. This binary format is fundamentally a simple string map table with some additional data and an embedded image. I decided to use a custom format rather than using an existing format (ELF, JSON, etc) because of the specialty use-case of this. We need a simple binary format that can be concatenated without requiring other external dependencies. This extension will make it easier to extend the linker wrapper's capabilties with whatever data is necessary. Eventually this will allow us to remove all the external arguments passed to the linker wrapper and embed it directly in the host's linker so device linking behaves exactly like host linking.
