It isn't just invalid UTF-8 sequences that are affected; it is in fact
any high-bit bytes (we don't ever try to construct UTF-8 characters,
just deconstruct them.)

d219a3e46f ELF: add header files, begin merging common code, drop .comment
Add something approaching real ELF header files.

Begin merging the common ELF code, beginning with the section name
detection.

Drop automatic generation of .comment section, and in particular the
treatment of .common as a special section (if we decide generating
.comment is still a good idea, we should just do it as a macro.)

Augment the list of known sections, and make it table-driven.

e5fdc60c2b Document the as86 ..start label
I realized that a documentation change is required to inform users about the
addition of entry point support for the as86 format.  The following produces
reasonable output for .txt output, but I am blind and so can't check the
other formats as readily.
