rS307808: elfcopy: select mode by the end of the program name
Summary

We select the mode of operation (elfcopy, mcs, or strip) based on the program name. Match the end of the name to allow prefixes - for example, bsdstrip or aarch64-freebsd-strip.

This improves use of these tools as drop-in replacements for GNU objcopy and strip, which are built with a limited set of supported targets and often installed with a target prefix for cross tools.

Just compare the end of the program name with strip/mcs rather than looking for a dash. This is the way it's done in FreeBSD ar/ranlib already, and allows names like bsdstrip. Also add a test case.
