    util: add rmodtool for parsing ELF files to rmodules
    
    The current implementation of creating rmodules relies
    on invoking the linker in a certain manner with the
    relocations overlaid on the BSS section. It's not really
    surprising that the linker doesn't always behave the way
    one wants depending on the linker used and the architecture.
    Instead, introduce rmodtool which takes an ELF file as an
    input, parses it, and creates a new ELF file in the format
    the rmodule loader expects.
