LibELF: Support relocating weak symbols against global libraries

Browse source 
A strong symbol anywhere in an executable must override any
weak symbol used in any library. This means that the weak symbol
must be overridden by a strong symbol even if the strong symbol
is in a dependent library. This means we need to perform relocations
twice, and resolve weak symbols globally before attempting to resolve
them locally. Consequentially we need to defer performing any
initialisations until after we have performed the second round of
relocations.
