Done.

I am a bit confused.

Imagine we have the code and invocations below:

"1.s":
```
.section foo,"ax", at progbits
.cfi_startproc
 nop
.cfi_endproc
```

```
as 1.s -o 1.o
ld.bfd 1.o -o with_hdr --eh-frame-hdr
ld.bfd 1.o -o wo_hdr
```

For both of them I do not see neither `.eh_frame_hdr` nor `.eh_frame` section dumped with `-a`.
I see ".eh_frame" dumped when I add `-wf` though (but still no `.eh_frame_hdr`).
e.g.:

Since we have such differences in the behavior, should we just test the current behavior atm?
I.e. before this diff I tested "EH_FRAME Header [", now I also added a check for ".eh_frame section at offset...".
Both of them are dumped at the top level currently. Seems reasonable to test the fact we do that (with just `-all`)
and the order, probably?
(I am ok to change it in any way actually, but just wanted to clarify this before doing anything with it.)

Yep, probably `SHT_NOTE` will be the next.
