On MachO, sections also have segment names. When a tool looking at a .o file
prints a segment name, this is what they mean. In reality, a .o has only one
anonymous, segment.
This patch adds a MachO only function to fetch that segment name. I named it
getSectionFinalSegmentName since the main use for the name seems to be inform
the linker with segment this section should go to.
The patch also changes MachOObjectFile::getSectionName to return just the
section name instead of computing SegmentName,SectionName.
The main difference from the previous patch is that it doesn't use
InMemoryStruct. It is extremely dangerous: if the endians match it returns
a pointer to the file buffer, if not, it returns a pointer to an internal buffer
that is overwritten in the next API call.
We should change all of this code to use
support::detail::packed_endian_specific_integral like ELF, but since these
functions only handle strings, they work with big and little endian machines
as is.
I have tested this by installing ubuntu 12.10 ppc on qemu, that is why it took
so long :-)

I cannot reproduce it the failures locally, so I will keep an eye at the ppc
bots. This patch does add the change to the "Disassembly of section" message,
but that is not what was failing on the bots.

AKA: Recompile *ALL* the source code!
This one went much better. No manual edits here. I spot-checked for
silliness and grep-checked for really broken edits and everything seemed
good. It all still compiles. Yell if you see something that looks goofy.

MachOObjectFile owns a MachOObj, but never frees it. Both MachOObjectFile
and MachOObj want to own the MemoryBuffer, though, so we have to be careful
and give them each one of their own.
Thanks to Greg Clayton, Eric Christopher and Michael Spencer for helping
figure out what's going wrong here.

of zero-initialized sections, virtual sections and common symbols
and preventing the loading of sections which are not required for
execution such as debug information.

* Add begin_dynamic_table() / end_dynamic_table() private interface to ELFObjectFile.
* Add begin_libraries_needed() / end_libraries_needed() interface to ObjectFile, for grabbing the list of needed libraries for a shared object or dynamic executable.
* Implement this new interface completely for ELF, leave stubs for COFF and MachO.
* Add 'llvm-readobj' tool for dumping ObjectFile information.
