Liav A. 4aec3f4ef9 Kernel+Userland: Simplify loading of an ELF interpreter path
The LibELF validate_program_headers method tried to do too many things
at once, and as a result, we had an awkward return type from it.

To be able to simplify it, we no longer allow passing a StringBuilder*
but instead we require to pass an Optional<Elf_Phdr> by reference so
it could be filled with actual ELF program header that corresponds to
an INTERP header if such found.

As a result, we ensure that only certain implementations that actually
care about the ELF interpreter path will actually try to load it on
their own and if they fail, they can have better diagnostics for an
invalid INTERP header.

This change also fixes a bug that on which we failed to execute an ELF
program if the INTERP header is located outside the first 4KiB page of
the ELF file, as the kernel previously didn't have support for looking
beyond that for that header.
