[ELF] - implemented --eh-frame-hdr command line option.

--eh-frame-hdr
Request creation of ".eh_frame_hdr" section and ELF "PT_GNU_EH_FRAME" segment header.

Both gold and the GNU linker support an option --eh-frame-hdr which tell them to construct a header for all the .eh_frame sections. This header is placed in a section named .eh_frame_hdr and also in a PT_GNU_EH_FRAME segment. At runtime the unwinder can find all the PT_GNU_EH_FRAME segments by calling dl_iterate_phdr.
This section contains a lookup table for quick binary search of FDEs.
