elf: Set l_contiguous to 1 for the main map in more cases
l_contiguous was not initialized at all for the main map and
always 0.  This commit adds code to check if the LOAD segments
are adjacent to each other, and sets l_contiguous accordingly.
This helps _dl_find_object because it is more efficient if the
main mapping is contiguous.

Note that not all (PIE or non-PIE) binaries are contiguous in this
way because BFD ld creates executables with LOAD holes:
