[PATCH] libelf: Return already gotten Elf_Data from elf_getdata_rawchunk

[Mark Wielaard <mark@klomp.org>]

elf_getdata_rawchunk keeps a list of Elf_Data_Chunk to track which
Elf_Data structures have already been requested. This allows elf_end
to clean up all internal data structures and the Elf_Data d_buf if
it was malloced.

But it didn't check if a chunk was already requested earlier. This
meant that if for example dwelf_elf_gnu_build_id was called multiple
times to lookup a build-id from the phdrs a new Elf_Data_Chunk was
created. This could slowly leak memory.

So also keep track of the offset from which the size and type of
the rawdata was requested so we can return existing data if it is
requested multiple times.

Note that the current cache is a simple linked list but the chain
is normally not that long. It is normally used to get chunks from
the phdrs, and there are normally less than 10.
