[PATCH 07/14] MIPS: move ELF headers loading outside of load_elf_binary()

[Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@xxxxxxx>]

Refactor MIPS' load_elf_binary() implementation by not reading the
ELF header itself, but using a pointer to a memory buffer instead.
This prepares for removing the need to rewind the image file later.
