	ARE LIKELY TO BE PUT TOGETHER INTO THE SAME SEGMENT. For example (.text with .rodata)

	other section. The segment layout is almost always not same as initial after LMA
	modification with objcopy. !!!

	Moves an ARM ELF executable's LMA by moving each of its sections by 
	the given offset. It uses binutils (namely readelf and objcopy)	to do
	the actual work. Normally objcopy supports a similar operation;	moving
	of VMA of the whole program by --adjust-vma switch. But it only	supports
	modifying LMAs by section. Therefore this script extracts all loadable 
	section names and moves them one by one in order to move the whole program.
