cbfstool: add ELF writing support
In order to generate rmodules in the format of ELF files there needs to be support for writing out ELF files. The ELF writer is fairly simple. It accpets sections that can be associated with an optional buffer (file data). For each section flagged with SHF_ALLOC a PT_LOAD segment is generated. There isn't smart merging of the sections into a single PT_LOAD segment.
