[obj2yaml] Emit ProgramHeader.Offset
Currently, obj2yaml doesn't emit the offset of program headers, leaving
it to yaml2obj to calculate offsets based on `FirstSec` and `LastSec`.
This causes an obj2yaml->yaml2obj round trip to often produce an ELF
file that is not equivalent to the original, especially since it seems
common to have program headers at offset 0 whose first section starts at
a higher address. Besides being non-equivalent, the produced ELF files
also do not seem to work propery and readelf complains about them.
Taking a simple hello world program in C, compiled using either GCC or
Clang, the original ELF file has the following program headers (only
showing some relevant ones):
```
Program Headers:
Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr
FileSiz MemSiz Flags Align
PHDR 0x0000000000000040 0x0000000000000040 0x0000000000000040

```
While this is the result of an obj2yaml->yaml2obj round trip:
```

```
Note that the offset of segment 2 changed from 0x0 to 0x318. This has
two effects:
- readelf complains "Error: the PHDR segment is not covered by a LOAD
segment" since PHDR was originally covered by segment 2 but not
anymore;
- Segment 2 effectively became empty according to the section to segment
mapping.
I addition to these, the output doesn't correctly execute anymore,
crashing with a "SIGSEGV (Address boundary error)".
This patch fixes the difference in program header layout after a round
trip by explicitly emitting offsets.
