[PATCH 1/6] common: elf: add computation of elf boundaries

[Clement Leger <cleger@kalray.eu>]

In order to correctly load an initrd or a device tree after an elf file,
we need to know its boundaries. This commit adds support for that and
allow the bootm implementations to use it for memory loading.
