favour of `elf_getshdrnum()`, `elf_getphdrnum()` and `elf_getshdrstrndx()`
respectively.
* Add new manual pages for `elf_getshdrstrndx()`, `elf_getphdrnum()` and
`elf_getshdrnum()`.
* Add a deprecation warning for `elf_getshstrndx()`, `elf_getphnum()` and
`elf_getshnum()`.

types that don't have a fixed size.
- The *fsize() functions should return a size of 1, for variable length
types.
- Redefine symbol ELF_T_LAST to match the current end of the list.

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.

field of the ELF executable header to zero.

- 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.

use of `elf_getbase()` on non-archive members. This change is needed
for gcc LTO (-flto) to work properly.
* Style fix: paranthesize returned values.
* Document the current behaviour of `elf_getbase()`.

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.
Most of the code there is contributed anyway.

elf{32,64}_xlateto[fm]() translation functions. This change makes our
libelf compatible with other ELF(3) implementations. [1]
- Update manual page to reflect this change.
- Style fixes: wrap a long line.
