Previously strip reported a somewhat cryptic error for empty files:
strip: elf_begin() failed: Invalid argument
Add a special case to treat empty files as with an unknown file format.
This is consistent with llvm-strip. GNU strip produces no output which
does not seem like useful behaviour (but it does exit with status 1).

ELF tool chain readelf accepts -u / --unwind but just ignores the
option. This was previously undocumented, which could be confusing for
someone encountering `readelf -u` (in a script or GNU readelf example).

This matches the GNU and LLVM versions of readelf.
As markj noted in the review -u is not actually implemented yet and has
no effect. The option is accepted and just ignored.

GNU readelf exits with an error for a number of invalid file cases.
Previously ELF Tool Chain readelf always exited with 0. Now we exit 1
upon detecting an error with one or more input files, but in any case
all of them are processed.
This should catch common failure cases. We still do not report an error
for some types of malformed ELF files, but this is consistent with GNU
readelf.

Currently macOS and DragonFlyBSD get their own special case and only
handle x86. Since all the FreeBSD cases should be general enough for
macOS and DragonFlyBSD (and the x86 ones are identical to the existing
ones) we can just delete the special cases and reuse the FreeBSD ones.
Note that upstream has since removed all the architecture-specific
checks in this file, with the only code relevant to us being an
endianness check that uses the generic compiler-provided macros. Thus
this patch will not be upstreamed, and will be dropped in a future
vendor import.

GNU and Oracle libelf implementations added support for section
compression, intended to reduce the size of DWARF debug info (which
might be an order of magnitude larger than the code).
There are two compressed ELF section formats:
1. Old GNU - sections are renmaed to start with 'z'. Section contains
a magic number, uncompressed size, and compressed data.
2. Oracle and New GNU - compressed sections use the SHF_COMPRESSED flag.
The compression header contains the compression type, uncompressed
size, and uncompressed alignment.
The second style is preferred and this change implements only that one.
