Subject: [PATCH v2, 5/5] elf coredump: Add extended numbering support

The current ELF dumper implementation can produce broken corefiles if
program headers exceed 65535. This number is determined by the number
of vmas which the process have. In particular, some extreme programs
may use more than 65535 vmas. (If you google max_map_count, you can
find some users facing this problem.) This kind of program never be
able to generate correct coredumps.

This patch implements ``extended numbering'' that uses sh_info field
of the first section header instead of e_phnum field in order to
represent upto 4294967295 vmas.

This is supported by
AMD64-ABI(http://www.x86-64.org/documentation.html) and
Solaris(http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-1984/).
Of course, we are preparing patches for gdb and binutils.
