Niko1221 ce4197ce81 appimage_elf: a shared library is not a static PIE; the check tells them apart without name rules (#4337 checker)
The checker treated every ET_DYN without PT_INTERP as a static executable, so the RUNPATH $ORIGIN that Pillow, numpy and sharp libraries carry was
reported as 'static PIE with a damaged dynamic section' (35 files in 0.2.11, 18 Pillow libraries in the published 0.2.10 Control; false positives).
A static PIE is now an ET_DYN with no interpreter, a non-zero entry point and DF_1_PIE in DT_FLAGS_1 and no DT_SONAME; a library (no entry point, or a
SONAME and no PIE flag) is never checked. A candidate whose dynamic section cannot be read is reported as damaged, because the overwrite that crashes
rg also erases the flags, so the test for 'executable' uses the entry point, which the damage does not touch. Tests (tools/test_appimage_elf.py, 16, run
on p1006): shared libraries with and without a SONAME, entry point or RUNPATH pass; a static PIE passes; a static PIE with a 0x5A .dynamic or an added
RUNPATH fails; a real gcc shared library with RUNPATH $ORIGIN passes; a real gcc static PIE passes and its overwritten copy fails. Build tool only.
