objtool: Constify 'struct elf *' parameters

In preparation to parallelize certain parts of objtool, map out which uses
of various data structures are read-only vs. read-write.

As a first step constify 'struct elf' pointer passing, most of the secondary
uses of it in find_symbol_*() methods are read-only.

Also, while at it, better group the 'struct elf' handling methods in elf.h.
