libelf: introduce macros for memory access and pointer handling

We introduce a collection of macros which abstract away all the
pointer arithmetic and dereferences used for accessing the input ELF
and the output area(s).  We use the new macros everywhere.

For now, these macros are semantically identical to the code they
replace, so this patch has no functional change.

elf_is_elfbinary is an exception: since it doesn't take an elf*, we
need to handle it differently.  In a future patch we will change it to
take, and check, a length parameter.  For now we just mark it with a
fixme.

That this patch has no functional change can be verified as follows:

  0. Copy the scripts "comparison-generate" and "function-filter"
     out of this commit message.
  1. Check out the tree before this patch.
  2. Run the script ../comparison-generate .... ../before
  3. Check out the tree after this patch.
  4. Run the script ../comparison-generate .... ../after
  5. diff --exclude=\*.[soi] -ruN before/ after/ |less

Expect these differences:
  * stubdom/zlib-x86_64/ztest*.s2
      The filename of this test file apparently contains the pid.
  * xen/common/version.s2
      The xen build timestamp appears in two diff hunks.

Verification that this is all that's needed:
  In a completely built xen.git,
     find * -name .*.d -type f | xargs grep -l libelf\.h
  Expect results in:
     xen/arch/x86:            Checked above.
     tools/libxc:             Checked above.
     tools/xcutils/readnotes: Checked above.
     tools/xenstore:          Checked above.
     xen/common/libelf:
       This is the build for the hypervisor; checked in B above.
     stubdom:
       We have one stubdom which reads ELFs using our libelf,
       pvgrub, which is checked above.

I have not done this verification for ARM.

This is part of the fix to a security issue, XSA-55.
