Adding FatELF support to the embedded ELF loader. (#12624)

This is implemented based on the textual spec from the FatELF project.
FatELF is dead and is unlikely to ever be merged into Linux but it
exists and is sufficient for our purposes of deploying plugins in
portable ELF formats. No one ever specified a file extension as it was
assumed it'd become part of .so but to avoid confusion I've used '.sos'.

A simple `iree-fatelf` tool is added for working with the FatELF files
and does not need anything from the original FatELF project. We can ship
this in releases to allow end-users building plugins to package up their
ELFs in a compatible format.

The FatELF format is documented here: https://icculus.org/fatelf/ +

IREE: Intermediate Representation Execution Environment

IREE (Intermediate Representation Execution Environment, pronounced as “eerie”) is an MLIR-based end-to-end compiler and runtime that lowers Machine Learning (ML) models to a unified IR that scales up to meet the needs of the datacenter and down to satisfy the constraints and special considerations of mobile and edge deployments.

See our website for project details, user guides, and instructions on building from source.

Project Status

IREE is still in its early phase. We have settled down on the overarching infrastructure and are actively improving various software components as well as project logistics. It is still quite far from ready for everyday use and is made available without any support at the moment. With that said, we welcome any kind of feedback on any communication channels!
