Rafael Espindola 4879864dd7 Move LMAOffset from the OutputSection to the PhdrEntry. NFC.
If two sections are in the same PT_LOAD, their relatives offsets,
virtual address and physical addresses are all the same.

I initially wanted to have a single global LMAOffset, on the
assumption that every ELF file was in practiced loaded contiguously in
both physical and virtual memory.

Unfortunately that is not the case. The linux kernel has:

  LOAD           0x200000 0xffffffff81000000 0x0000000001000000 0xced000 0xced000 R E 0x200000
  LOAD           0x1000000 0xffffffff81e00000 0x0000000001e00000 0x15f000 0x15f000 RW  0x200000
  LOAD           0x1200000 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000001f5f000 0x01b198 0x01b198 RW  0x200000
  LOAD           0x137b000 0xffffffff81f7b000 0x0000000001f7b000 0x116000 0x1ec000 RWE 0x200000

The delta for all but the third PT_LOAD is the same:
0xffffffff80000000. I think the 3rd one is a hack for implementing per
cpu data, but we can't break that.
