rS291958: elfcopy: exclude extension when converting from binary
Summary

When converting from binary to ELF, elfcopy creates symbols _binary_<filename>_start_, _binary_<filename>_end, and _binary_<filename>_size. For compatibility with GNU objcopy (and to produce sensible symbol names) the extension must be stripped off.
