kexec: derive purgatory entry from symbol
kexec_load_purgatory() derives image->start by locating e_entry inside an
SHF_EXECINSTR section. If the purgatory object contains multiple
executable sections with overlapping sh_addr, the entrypoint check can
match more than once and trigger a WARN.
Derive the entry section from the purgatory_start symbol when present and
compute image->start from its final placement. Keep the existing e_entry
fallback for purgatories that do not expose the symbol.
