The offset range data for builtin modules is generated using:
 - modules.builtin.objs: associates object files with module names
 - vmlinux.o: provides load order of sections and offset of first member per
    section
 - vmlinux.o.map: provides offset of object file content per section

The generated data will look like:

.text 00000000-00000000 = _text
.text 0000baf0-0000cb10 amd_uncore
.text 0009bd10-0009c8e0 iosf_mbi
...
.text 008e6660-008e9630 snd_soc_wcd_mbhc
.text 008e9630-008ea610 snd_soc_wcd9335 snd_soc_wcd934x snd_soc_wcd938x
.text 008ea610-008ea780 snd_soc_wcd9335
...
.data 00000000-00000000 = _sdata
.data 0000f020-0000f680 amd_uncore

For each ELF section, it lists the offset of the first symbol.  This can
be used to determine the base address of the section at runtime.

Next, it lists (in strict ascending order) offset ranges in that section
that cover the symbols of one or more builtin modules.  Multiple ranges
can apply to a single module, and ranges can be shared between modules.
