Kernel+LibELF: Don't blindly trust ELF symbol offsets in symbolication

Browse source 
It was possible to craft a custom ELF executable that when symbolicated
would cause the kernel to read from user-controlled addresses anywhere
in memory. You could then fetch this memory via /proc/PID/stack

We fix this by making ELFImage hand out StringView rather than raw
const char* for symbol names. In case a symbol offset is outside the
ELF image, you get a null StringView. :^)

Test: Kernel/elf-symbolication-kernel-read-exploit.cpp
