I can't catch. This patch even includes the test which checks that DT_PLTGOT holds an address of .got section:

```
# EXE:          Name: .got
. . .
# EXE-NEXT:     Address: [[GOTADDR:0x[0-9a-f]+]]
. . .
# EXE-DAG:    0x00000003 PLTGOT               [[GOTADDR]]
```

> In that case "First" might confuse. Because you have to read code to realize that the "First" means first global but sometimes just first entry. If you ask somebody familiar with MIPS what is the first GOT entry he or she answers that it is either "Lazy resolver" entry or "first local entry"
Let's rename it to something like getFirstGlobal() maybe?
