We can replace &elf->sechdrs[i] with &sechdrs[i] to slightly shorten
the code because we already have the local variable 'sechdrs'.
However, defining 'sechdr' instead shortens the code further.

The first few lines of section_rel() and section_rela() are the same.
They both retrieve the index of the section to which the relocaton
applies, and skip known-good sections. This common code should be moved
to check_sec_ref().
Avoid ugly casts when computing 'start' and 'stop', and also make the
Elf_Rel and Elf_Rela pointers const.
