Ian Campbell 6f1113b5c5 [LIBELF] Prefer PT_NOTE segments to SHT_NOTE sections for ELF notes.
It's always an error to try to use sections on an executable; the
segments in the phdr are definitive.

Unfortunately we cannot drop SHT_NOTE support completely due to a
binutils bug which causes kernels to have the offset field of the
PT_NOTE phdr set to zero:

	http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=594

This bug is present in binutils 2.17 although some distros have
backported the fix.

Therefore we simply prefer a PT_NOTE segment if we find one otherwise
we still use the SHT_NOTE section (and then the old __xen_guest
section).

Based on a patch from Jeremy Fitzhardinge.

Also added XEN_ELFNOTE_HV_START_LOW to readnotes.

Ian Campbell e76cb15dce [TOOLS] Use ELFSIZE to pick the ELF structures to use in readnotes.c
We can remove Elf_Ehdr since it is only used for e_ident which is an
unsigned char array.
