linker: Fix the computation of si->base

The computation of si->base assumed that the first entry in the
program header table is a PT_PHDR. This results in the dynamic
linker crashing with a SIGSEGV/MAPERR when trying to load some
of the NDK unit test programs, which happen to have an EXIDX
header first, followed byu a PHDR one.

This patch fixes the computation by parsing the program header
table, looking explicitely for the PHDR entry. This fixes the
load of the NDK unit test programs, and doesn't affect system
libraries.
