[PATCH] libelf: Make sure version xlate dest buffer is fully defined.

[Mark Wielaard <mjw at redhat dot com>]

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1170810#c16
contains an example of usage of undefined memory when version section
data needs to be translated, but the version xlate functions detect they
cannot fully transform the section data. To make sure the dest buffer
data is completely defined this patch makes sure all data is moved
from src to dest first. This is somewhat inefficient since normally
all data will be fully converted. But the translation functions have
no way to indicate only partial data was converted.
