Add partial support for ELF format corefiles. Still needs code to extract
register values from corefiles and make them available to bfd clients.

+
+ Since program segments have no names, we generate a synthetic name

+ program header table. For segments that are split (see below) we
+ generate the names segment<NUM>a and segment<NUM>b.
+
+ Note that some program segments may have a file size that is different than
+ (less than) the memory size. All this means is that at execution the
+ system must allocate the amount of memory specified by the memory size,
+ but only initialize it with the first "file size" bytes read from the
+ file. This would occur for example, with program segments consisting
+ of combined data+bss.
+
+ To handle the above situation, this routine generates TWO bfd sections
+ for the single program segment. The first has the length specified by
+ the file size of the segment, and the second has the length specified
+ by the difference between the two sizes. In effect, the segment is split
+ into it's initialized and uninitialized parts.
