[PATCH] D74955: [obj2yaml] - Dump SHT_STRTAB, SHT_SYMTAB and SHT_DYNSYM sections.

MaskRay added a comment.

> Sometimes we need to dump an object and build it again from a YAML description produced. The problem is that obj2yaml does not dump some of sections, like string tables and symbol tables.

> Because of that yaml2obj implicitly creates them and sections created are not placed at their original locations. They are added to the end of a section list. That makes a preparing test cases task harder than it can be.

The description is verbose. Just mention that obj2yaml does not dump SHT_STRTAB/SHT_SYMTAB/SHT_DYNSYM. This is problematic because the output YAML loses track of their positions in the section header table and makes objyaml->yaml2obj round trip fail.
