ea22f625a7 libelf is overly strict about the type and alignment of Elf_Data
objects inside one ELF section, which prevents the creation of a ELF
section with mixed data types. For example, gcc LTO use libelf to
create a .gnu_lto_XXX section that contains integers and a string
table, which doesn't work with our libelf implementation.

The changes made in this commit include:
* Allow Elf_Data type to be different than section type.
* Relax Elf_Data alignment check.
* Align each Elf_Data by their own alignment instead of section alignment.

f0f10541db Perform additional checks when translating between file and memory
representations of ELF types.

The ELF(3) API allows applications to request a conversion that is
`in-place', i.e., with source and destinations data buffers being
the same.  However, the file and memory sizes of ELF sections that
have additional internal structure, such as those of type `Elf_Note',
or `Elf_GNU_Hash_Header', can be determined only known after the
type-specific headers that comprise the first few words in these
sections are read and translated.

Pass in the size of destination buffer to type translation routines
in "libelf_convert.m4" and have these routines return an error code
if the translated data would not fit inside the destination buffer.

7ee5b008fb - Correctly handle sections of type SHT_NOBITS. For these sections:
- elf_getdata() and elf_rawdata() should return an "Elf_Data" structure
    that has its "d_buf" member set to NULL and "d_size" member set to
    the nominal 'size' of the section.  [1]
  - Update the manual page for these functions.
- Fix a memory leak in an error handling path inside elf_getdata().
- Use _libelf_allocate_data() in elf_newdata() for consistency.

Similar to libexec/, do the same with lib/. Make WARNS=6 the norm and
lower it when needed.

I'm setting WARNS?=0 for secure/. It seems secure/ includes the
Makefile.inc provided by lib/. I'm not going to touch that directory.
