This adds support for reading the "bigobj" variant of COFF produced by
cl's /bigobj and mingw's -mbig-obj.
The most significant difference that bigobj brings is more than 2**16
sections to COFF.
bigobj brings a few interesting differences with it:
- It doesn't have a Characteristics field in the file header.
- It doesn't have a SizeOfOptionalHeader field in the file header (it's
only used in executable files).
- Auxiliary symbol records have the same width as a symbol table entry.
Since symbol table entries are bigger, so are auxiliary symbol
records.
Write support will come soon.

Microsoft PE/COFF Spec clearly states that the field is of signed interger
type. However, in reality, it's unsigned. If cl.exe needs to create a large
number of sections for COMDAT sections, it will just create more than 32768
sections. Handling large section number as negative number is not correct.
I think this is a spec bug.

these was just one line of a file. Explicitly set the eol-style property on the
files to try and ensure this fix stays.
