Dodji Seketeli 5fe6a7404b Don't require all version symbol sections to present
When we need to get the version of a defined symbol, only the
SHT_GNU_versym and SHT_GNU_verdef sections are necessary.
SHT_GNU_verneed is not necessary, for instance.

So do not require that all of the three version-related sections to be
present when we want to get some symbol version information.

Otherwise, we just don't get the version of a defined symbol when the
SHT_GNU_verneed section is not present.  I stumbled upon this while
looking the abidw's output of ld-2.17.so from
glibc-2.17-79.el7_1.x86_64.  The _rtld_global_ro variable's symbol was
being seen as having no symbol version.  In reality it has the
GLIBC_PRIVATE version, but because the binary lacks a SHT_GNU_verneed
section, we were not getting the symbols version information.

I am not adding that library to the test suite because it's too big.
But at least this change doesn't break the existing regression test
suite.

	* src/abg-dwarf-reader.cc (get_symbol_versionning_sections): Allow
	returning just some of the three version-related section, not
	necessarily all of them.  Adjust comment.
	(get_version_for_symbol): Be ready to not necessarily having the
	three version-related sections available.

This is the Application Binary Interface Generic Analysis and
Instrumentation Library.

It aims at constructing, manipulating, serializing and de-serializing
ABI-relevant artifacts.

The set of artifacts that we are intersted is made of quantities like
types, variable, fonctions and declarations of a given library or
program.  For a given library or program this set of quantities is
called an ABI corpus.

This library aims at (among other things) providing a way to compare
two ABI Corpora (apparently the plural of corpus is copora, heh,
that's cool), provide detailed information about their differences,
and help build tools to infer interesting conclusions about these
differences.
