I encountered an issue where `p &variable` was finding an incorrect address for
32-bit PIC ELF files loaded into a running process.  The problem was that the
R_386_32 ELF relocations were not being applied to the DWARF section, so all
variables in that file were reporting as being at the start of their respective
section.  There is an assert that catches this on debug builds, but silently
ignores the issue on non-debug builds.

In this changeset, I added handling for the R_386_32 relocation type to
ObjectFileELF, and a supporting function to ELFRelocation to differentiate
between DT_REL & DT_RELA in ObjectFileELF::ApplyRelocations().

Demonstration of issue:

  # build a relocatable object file;
  [dmlary at host work]$ cat rel.c
  volatile char padding[32] = "make sure var isnt at .data+0";
  volatile char var[] = "test";
  [dmlary at host work]$ gcc -c rel.c -FPIC -fpic -g -m32
  
  # start lldb debugging any binary;
  [dmlary at host work]$ lldb ./exec
  (lldb) target create "./exec"
  Current executable set to '/home/dmlary/src/work/exec' (i386).
  (lldb) process launch --stop-at-entry
