llvm-readobj is an internal testing tool for binary formats. Its output and
command line options do not need to be stable. It isn't supposed to be part of a
build process.
llvm-readelf was created as a user-facing utility and its interface intends to
be compatible with GNU readelf (unless there are good reasons not to).
The two tools have mostly compatible options. -s and -t are noticeable
exceptions due to history. I think the cost of keeping the inconsistency
overweighs the little history-compatible benefit and hinders transition from
cl::opt to OptTable, so let's change it.

Currently, `ELFFile<ELFT>::getEntry` does not check an index of
an entry. Because of that the code might read past the end of the symbol
table silently. I've added a test to `llvm-readobj\ELF\relocations.test`
to demonstrate the possible issue. Also, I've added a unit test for
this method.
After this change, `getEntry` stops reporting the section index and
reuses the `getSectionContentsAsArray` method, which already has
all the validation needed. Our related warnings now provide
more and better context sometimes.

--section-details/-t is a GNU readelf option that produce
an output that is an alternative to --sections.

Currently we have to set 'Machine' to something in our
YAML descriptions. Usually we use 'EM_X86_64' for 64-bit targets
and 'EM_386' for 32-bit targets. At the same time, in fact, in most
cases our tests do not need a machine type and we can use
'EM_NONE'.
This is cleaner, because avoids the need of using a particular machine.
In this patch I've made the 'Machine' key optional (the default value,
when it is not specified is `EM_NONE`) and removed it (where possible)
from yaml2obj, obj2yaml and llvm-readobj tests.
There are few tests left where I decided not to remove it, because
I didn't want to touch CHECK lines or doing anything more complex
than a removing a "Machine: *" line and formatting lines around.

It was requested in D84173 thread to not do it, because otherwise we extract and
check the name of the symbol table in LLVM style, but do not use it and
might report a warning which perhaps might be confusing.

In D83482 we agreed to name e_* fields that are used for overriding
values (like e_phoff) as EPh* (e.g. EPhOff).
Currently we have a set of e_sh* fields that are named inconsistently
with this rule. This patch renames all of them.

This is a follow-up for D82955, which allows to continue dumping when a symbol table is broken.
When we are unable to get the string table and trying to print symbols,
the existent tool logic together with D82955 reports an error:
"st_name (0x??) is past the end of the string table of size 0x??"
Though, when there is no string table, this message becomes misleading and excessive.
It is easy to fix it though and that is what this patch does.

When the --symbols option/--dyn-symbols is given we might report an
error and exit when something goes not right. E.g. when the SHT_SYMTAB
section is broken. Though we could report a warning and try to continue
dumping instead in many cases.
This patch removes `unwrapOrErr` calls from the code involved in the
flow described.

The intention of Object/readobj-shared-object.test was to check the
general output for shared object.
I've added a case for testing dynamic objects to ELF/symbols.test.
Also we already test dynamic symbols printing in ELF/dyn-symbols.test +
I've added a case for `--dyn-syms` alias in D73164.
Hence we can remove this piece from Object/readobj-shared-object.test.

This cleans up and merges `gnu-symbols.test` to `symbols.test`.
Initially `gnu-symbols.test` tested the following things:
1) How symbols are printed in GNU style.
It does not make sense to have a separate file for such tests.
2) It tried to test proc-specific symbol indexes. The test was incomplete and
also we already have `symbol-shndx.test` for that, so this part was removed.
3) It tested `--dyn-symbols` and `--symbols` correlation. All following
cases were moved to `symbols.test`:
a) That `--dyn-symbols` does not trigger showing regular symbols..
b) That `--symbols` triggers `--dyn-symbols` implicitly.
c) That `--dyn-symbols` and `--symbols` works fine together.

tools/llvm-readobj currently contains tests that are either general for
all file types or that mix file types inside. This patch refactors
these test and leaves only general tests in that folder. All other
tests were moved to ELF/COFF/MachO and wasm accordingly.
I tried to minimize amount of changes, so most of the test parts
remained unchanged. Any further refactorings and improvements for
particular tests should be done independently from this patch.
