libdwelf: Make dwelf_elf_begin return NULL only when there is an error.
dwelf_elf_begin was slightly different from elf_begin in case the file
turned out to not be an ELF file. elf_begin would return an Elf handle
with ELF_K_NONE. But dwelf_elf_begin would return NULL. This made it
impossible to tell the difference between a file or decompression error
and a (decompressed) file not being an ELF file.
Since dwelf_elf_begin could still return different kinds of ELF files
(ELF_K_ELF or ELF_K_AR - and theoretically ELF_K_COFF) this was not
really useful anyway. So make it so that dwelf_elf_begin always returns
an Elf handle unless there was a real error reading or decompressing
the file. Otherwise return NULL to make clear there was a real error.
Make sure that the decompression function returns DWFL_E_BADELF only
when the file isn't compressed. In which case the Elf handle won't
be replaced and can be returned (as ELF_K_NONE).
Add a new version to dwelf_elf_begin so programs can rely on it
returning NULL only for real errors.
