This is important to make sure that we're not testing tools different
from the one we're building with.
Introduce determine_wellknown_cmd, which encapsulates how we
should handle well-known tools specification (IFS splitting, env
override, etc.).
Check that sections are appropriately separated in virtual memory,
based on their (expected) permissions. This checks for missing
-Wl,-z,separate-code and potentially other problems.

Pull request description:
Some trivial maintenance to avoid having to do it again after the 0.17 branch off.
(The scripts to do this are in `./contrib/`)
Tree-SHA512: 16b2af45e0351b1c691c5311d48025dc6828079e98c2aa2e600dc5910ee8aa01858ca6c356538150dc46fe14c8819ed8ec8e4ec9a0f682b9950dd41bc50518fa
Perform the following ELF security checks:
- PIE: Check for position independent executable (PIE), allowing for address space randomization
- NX: Check that no sections are writable and executable (including the stack)
- RELRO: Check for read-only relocations, binding at startup
- Canary: Check for use of stack canary
Also add a check to symbol-check.py that checks that only the subset of
allowed libraries is imported (to avoid incompatibilities).
