Hello,

This is an updated patch for static pie support. I have corrected formatting and code standard issues which appeared in my previous patches. I also updated the commit message to be clearer on what is occurring and why.

Subject: [PATCH] Added support for creation of Static Position-Independent
Executables (PIE) on i386, x86_64, and arm.

This patch adds the generation of rcrt1.o which is used by gcc when compiling with the --static-pie flag.

rcrt1.o differs from crt1.o and Scrt1.o in that it the executable has a dynamic section but no relocations have been performed prior to _start being called.
crt1.o assumes there to be no dynamic relocations, and Scrt1.o has all relocations performed prior to execution by lsdo.

The new reloc_static_pie function handles parsing the elf headers, locating the dynamic section, and performing the relocations in a architecture agnostic method.
This allows for easier porting of static-pie support to additional architectures.
