Thanks. I split the patches.

The current code uses only libelf. I believe many OpenMP offload plugins have
been using libelf for a long time, and they did not switch to LLVM/Object, when
libomptarget was merged into the tree. I am not going to change this now,
because this may cause too much disturbance downstream. The purpose of this
patch is to make some ELF reading functionality available in OSes, where it is
(historically) unreasonable to require libelf dependency for user environments.

I think it will be actually vice versa :) the upstream and many downstream
repos will continue to use the libelf path, and the LLVM/Object path may be
broken, as you say. At the same time, we will have QA testing downstream for
the LLVM/Object path, so I will be able to catch issues and upstream the fixes.

Thanks! Fixed in D99551.

Thanks! Fixed in D99553.
