kldxref: Make use of libelf to be a portable cross tool

This allows kldxref to operate on kernel objects from any
architecture, not just the native architecture. In particular, this
will permit generating linker.hints files as part of a cross-arch
release build.

- elf.c is a new file that includes various wrappers around libelf
including routines to read ELF data structures such as program and
section headers and ELF relocations into the "generic" forms
described in <gelf.h>. This file also provides routines for
converting a linker set into an array of addresses (GElf_Addr)
as well as reading architecture-specific mod_* structures and
converting them into "generic" Gmod_* forms where pointers are
replaced with addresses.

- The various architecture-specific reloc handlers now use GElf_*
types for most values (including GElf_Rel and GElf_Rela for
relocation structures) and use routines from <sys/endian.h> to read
and write target values. A new linker set matches reloc handlers
to specific ELF (class, encoding, machine) tuples.

- The bits of kldxref.c that write out linker.hints now use the
encoding (ELFDATA2[LM]SB) of the first file encountered in a
directory to set the endianness of the output file. Input files
with a different architecture in the same directory are skipped with
a warning. In addition, the initial version record for the file
must be deferred until the first record is finished since the
architecture of the output file is not known until then.

- Various places that used 'sizeof(void *)' throughout now use
'elf_pointer_size()' to determine the size of a pointer in the
target architecture.

Fix kldxref on PowerPC64

When using kldxref on kernel modules built with clang8 + lld8,
kldxref would be unable to find the modules metadata information,
because PowerPC64 was using the ef_nop.c implementation of
ef_reloc().

When GNU LD was used, it was also relocating the metadata section of
the .ko file. LLD does not do this, but only generate dynamic
relocations for it. With minor changes, ef_powerpc.c can now work
for PowerPC64 too.
