Log:
  elfcopy: copy raw (untranslated) contents to binary output
  
  Previously elfcopy used elf_getdata to obtain data from ELF sections
  being copied to binary output, but elf_getdata returns data that has
  been translated - that is, data is in host byte order. When the host and
  target differ in endianness (e.g., converting a big-endian MIPS ELF
  object to binary on an x86 host) this resulted in byte-swapped data in
  certain sections such as .dynamic.
  
  Instead use elf_rawdata to keep data in the original, target endianness.
