[Qemu-devel] Use load addresses for ELF images |

The patch below changes the system emulation ELF loader to use load addresses,
not virtual addresses, when loading images. Typically a bare metal XIP
application will have both data and code loaded into the rom area. The
application startup code will then take care of copying the data segment to
its virtual ram address.
All the linux kernels I could find (and any image that doesn't deliberately do
otherwise) have load address == virtual address.
The new behavior is consistent with the gdb "load" command, grub, and pretty
much every other ELF system loader I'm aware of.
