We contacted plotfi and learned that llvm-ifs does not work well in production when it is used for elf stub generation. We suggested to improve llvm-ifs tools and unify it with llvm-elfabi tool as they share many similarities. llvm-elfabi has its own elf handler, most of its code have not yet landed and we will try our best to make it to production grade.  This CL is the first step to strip elf handler away from llvm-elfabi and put it into a standalone library so we can continue work on it and make it shared by both tools without breaking anything.
