Hard-coding the special section group sizes is unreliable. Instead,
determine them dynamically by finding the related struct definitions
in the DWARF metadata.
This is a livepatch backport of kpatch upstream commit [1]:
kpatch-build: detect special section group sizes 170449847136a48b19fc
Xen only deals with alt_instr, bug_frame and exception_table_entry
structures, so sizes of these structers are obtained from xen-syms.
This change is needed since with recent Xen the alt_instr structure
has changed size from 12 to 14 bytes.
