RFC: Adding a fixed format output mode to readelf

Hi Martin,

   PR 27309 got me thinking about readelf's output, and whilst it is
   true that we do not make any guarantees about the format or contents
   of the output it appears that other packages are becoming reliant
   upon its currently established behaviour.

   So I was wondering whether it would be a good idea to introduce
   some kind of fixed format output option, and what exactly this
   format might look like.  Do you have any opinions on the matter ?

Cheers
   Nick
