[Qemu-ppc] [PULL 076/130] elf-loader: add more return codes

[Alexander Graf]

From: Alexey Kardashevskiy <address@hidden>

The existing load_elf() just returns -1 if it fails to load ELF. However
it could be smarter than this and tell more about the failure such as
wrong endianness or incompatible platform.

This adds additional return codes for wrong architecture, wrong
endianness and if the image is not ELF at all.

This adds a load_elf_strerror() helper to convert return codes into
string messages.

This fixes handling of what load_elf() returns for s390x, other
callers just check the return value for <0 and this remains unchanged.
