[PATCH] sframe: clarify FDE function start address field

The function start address in a SFrame FDE (sfde_func_start_address)
is encoded as a signed offset to the function start address from the
SFrame section.

include/
	* sframe.h (struct sframe_func_desc_entry,
	sframe_func_desc_entry): Clarify that sfde_func_start_address
	is encoded as signed offset relative to the SFrame section.
