The netdump code not only gets used for netdump/diskdump files, but also
for kdump core files. These can also be generated with the 'vmss2core'
tool that'll produce a slightly different format that isn't as densely
packed as we expect it to be. In fact, the implicit assumption that the
ELF program headers directly follow the ELF header isn't always true for
these files, as they may contain the section headers in-between -- which
is totally conforming in regards to the ELF spec. This "padding" in
combination with the implicit assumption of densely packed headers make
us interpret the section headers as program headers which is obviously
wrong.
Support these kind of core files too by not blindly assuming the program
headers follow the ELF header directly but by looking at the program
header offset in the ELF header and use that instead. Add some guarding
sanity checks to decline operating on obviously malicious or broken core
files.
To not needlessly make things too complicated, allow a "padding space"
of up to 128 bytes only.
