look up the symbol type for absolute symbols

This patch adapts elf_symtab_read() to figure out correctly
which symbol type an absolute symbol is. Since bfd doesn't
freely offer this info, the section the symbol belongs to
is looked up by the symbol address and the type is deduced
from the section.
