Currently, rmodules with 0 relocations are not allowed. Fix this by skipping
addition of .rmodules section on 0 relocs.

Apparently when I originally wrote this I confused myself to no end.
The code/data of an rmodule has a set memory size which is associated
with the .payload section. The relocation entries may increase the
overall footprint of the memory size if the rmodule has no bss but
a lot of relocations. Therefore, just compare relocation entries size
plus the file size of the .payload section with the memory size of the
paylod section. The .empty section is added only when we have not met
the final target size.

The current implementation of creating rmodules relies
on invoking the linker in a certain manner with the
relocations overlaid on the BSS section. It's not really
surprising that the linker doesn't always behave the way
one wants depending on the linker used and the architecture.
Instead, introduce rmodtool which takes an ELF file as an
input, parses it, and creates a new ELF file in the format
the rmodule loader expects.
