This fixes more seg-faults in tools like "strings" and "objdump" when

presented with corrupt binaries.

	PR binutils/17512
	* elf.c (bfd_section_from_shdr): Detect and warn about ELF
	binaries with a group of sections linked by the string table
	indicies.
	* peXXigen.c (pe_print_edata): Detect out of range rvas and
	entry counts for the Export Address table, Name Pointer table
	 and Ordinal table.
