Modified Files:
        syssrc/sys/lib/libsa: loadfile.c

Log Message:
When loading an ELF kernel, don't load all the STRTAB sections.  Instead, just
load those STRTAB sections that are referenced by a SYMTAB that we're loading.

The main advantage of this is that (at least with the binaries output by my
ARM ELF linker) this removes the need to seek backwards through the file, which
is a big win when loading a gzipped kernel.

While we're here, don't allocate space for string tables we don't load.
