  1. Add small ELF parser

    This small ELF parser contains just the bare minimum functions so we
    can load ELF sections without the use of any external library.  This
    module also doesn't allocate dynamic memory.

  1. Add small gdb interface

    Livepatch load works but it doesn't modify the addresses because there
    is nothing to interpret the insn_queue.

  2. Implement a insnq interpreter on libpulp side

    This commit adds a insnq_interp in libpulp side as a way to trigger a
    livepatch without the `ulp` tool.  This is useful for debugging libpulp
    as for example to use it in valgrind, since we can't run it under
    addrsan.

  1. Only build and expose the gdb interface when requested

    The gdb interface should be used for debugging libpulp, so applications
    may not want this exposed.
    
    To enable it, build with
    ```
    configure --enable-gdb-interface
    ```
