[PATCH] ldconfig: file truncated while reading soname after patchelf [BZ #23964]

[Eamonn Coughlan]

The way loadaddr is computed from the first LOAD segment in
process_elf_file assumes .dynstr is also contained in that segment. That
is not necessarily true, especially for libraries that have been touched
by patchelf.

With this patch, the address read from the dynamic segment is checked
against all applicable segments instead of only the first one.

[BZ #23964]
* elf/readelflib.c: Fix resolving of loadaddr for .dynstr vaddr.
