    kernel: mtdsplit: support ELF loader splitting
    
    To parse the ELF kernel loader, a small ELF parser is used that can
    handle both ELF32 or ELF64 class loaders. The splitter assumes that the
    kernel is always located before the rootfs, whether it is embedded in
    the loader or not. If the kernel is located after the rootfs on the
    firmware partition, then the rootfs splitter will include it in the
    dynamically created rootfs_data partition and the kernel will be
    corrupted.
    
    The kernel image is preferably embedded inside the ELF loader, so the
    end of the loader equals the end of the kernel partition. This is due to
    the way mtd_find_rootfs_from searches for the the rootfs:
    - if the kernel image is embedded in the loader, the appended rootfs may
      follow the loader immediately, within the same erase block.
    - if the kernel image is not embedded in the loader, but placed at some
      offset behind the loader (OKLI-style loader), the rootfs must be
      aligned to an erase-block after the loader and kernel image.
    
    In case section header table is empty, determine the elf loader size by
    finding the end of the last segment, as defined by the program header
    table.
