To align the PE/COFF and the ELF headers of the decompressor binary, put the zImage header and the EFI header in a separate .start section, and emit it at the start of the Image. This change is necessary for UEFI based debug tooling to be able to use the vmlinux ELF binary, since it gets confused if the PE/COFF .text section and the ELF .text section live at different offsets.
