[llvm-objcopy][ELF] Implement --only-keep-debug
--only-keep-debug produces a debug file as the output that only
preserves contents of sections useful for debugging purposes (the
binutils implementation preserves SHT_NOTE and non-SHF_ALLOC sections),
by changing their section types to SHT_NOBITS and rewritting file
offsets.
See https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Separate-Debug-Files.html
The intended use case is:
```
llvm-objcopy --only-keep-debug a a.dbg
llvm-objcopy --strip-debug a b
llvm-objcopy --add-gnu-debuglink=a.dbg b
```
The current layout algorithm is incapable of deleting contents and
shrinking segments, so it is not suitable for implementing the
functionality.
This patch adds a new algorithm which assigns sh_offset to sections
first, then modifies p_offset/p_filesz of program headers. It bears a
resemblance to lld/ELF/Writer.cpp.
