libelf: Make sure we have at least a full ELF header available.
When elf_memory is called we could get a slightly too small image that doesn't contain a full ELF header (but does contain at least the e_ident values). Require the full header before even validating the rest of the ELF header fields. https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27076 Signed-off-by: Mark Wielaard <mark@klomp.org>
