dwarf_attrval_*() will search the parent DIE referenced by a
DW_AT_abstract_origin attribute for the value of the DW_AT_type attribute.
Do the same thing for the DW_AT_specification attributes in variable
definitions emitted by GCC 6.2, and ensure that we return an error rather
than crashing if neither DW_AT_abstract_origin or DW_AT_specification is
found when looking for the value of the DW_AT_type attribute.

Previously a command like "strings f1 f2 f3" reported the exit status
based only on processing the last file.
As with GNU strings, report an error exit status if an error was
encountered processing any of the files. While here simplify the
exit status handling to just success (0) / failure (1).

The mode of operation (elfcopy, mcs, or strip) is chosen based on the
program name. Broaden this to allow a substring match at the end of the
name to allow prefixes - for example, bsdstrip or aarch64-freebsd-strip.
This improves use of these tools as drop-in replacements for GNU objcopy
and strip, which are often built with a limited set of supported targets
and installed with a target prefix for cross tools.

This fixes a EFI/PE header issue that prevented elfcopy-produced .efi
files from working with Secure Boot:
Make sure section raw size is always padded to multiple of
FileAlignment from the optional header, as requested by the PE
specification. This change should reduce the diff between PE image
generated by Binutils objcopy and elftoolchain elfcopy.

Improvements include:
* Add support for reporting and handling a number of new constants in
various tools, including:
* CloudABI OSABI
* DT_TLSDESC_*
* i386, MIPS, SPARC and amd64 relocations
* C++ demangler bug fixes
* Man page updates
* Improved input validation in several tools
This update also reduces diffs against upstream as a number of fixes
included in upstream were previously cherry-picked into FreeBSD.

Fix a symbol table handling bug in elfcopy: elfcopy puts .symtab,
.strtab and .shstrtab sections in the end of the output object. If
the input objects have more sections after any of these 3 sections,
the section table will be reordered, and in that case the section
symbols should be regenerated for relocations.
The bug is triggered since newer clang puts .strtab section in the
beginning of the object produced.

Merge ELF Tool Chain r3434:
Previously, elfcopy defines:
VMA: section virtual address
LMA: PHDR(p_vaddr)
While binutils(libbfd) defines:
VMA: section virtual address and PHDR(p_vaddr).
LMA: PHDR(p_paddr)
For elfcopy, p_paddr is considered not meaningful and is always set
to the same value as p_vaddr.
elfcopy was implemented that way because I thought p_paddr is not
used/meaningful according to the ELF ABI. However it turned out
p_paddr is at least used in some ELF files, e.g. the FreeBSD kernel.
This change made elfcopy treat p_paddr as LMA, same as libbfd.
(However, some VMA/LMA related command line option still need tweaking
to make them compatible with binutils objcopy. This will be improved
later)

An empty debug link target previously returned a confusing and incorrect
error like "objcopy: fread failed: No error: 0". Now, return an explicit
error.
GNU objcopy allows an empty file as the debug link target. However,
that case is nonsensical so diverging from GNU behaviour is fine.

If the output object is not an ELF file, choose an arbitrary ELF format
for the intermediate file. srec, ihex and binary formats are independent
of class, endianness and machine type so these choices do not affect the
