-This is a port of the checksec.sh script from coredump.cx 
-to Go. It ain't pretty but works ok. I wrote this because 
-readelf doesn't seem to like receiving binary files via

-every single package of Fedora for example to extract the 
-binary hardening information. (Use with script + *.iso 
-or reposync).
