RVO symbol files still follow RISC5 layout #8

Open

The layout seems like it ought to work for the most part; however, some things may need to be changed:

Introduce a magic constant in the header to uniquely identify object and symbol files for RISC-V.
Widen all integers to 64-bits.
Ensure string alignment restrictions are met.
Figure out how the module table will work.
Figure out how traps will be invoked.
Figure out how NEW will be invoked (if different from traps).

Some items need more research:

Do we need to introduce a I-format and S-format relocations? (Might be relevant to RVOG emits wrong code for Texts.OpenWriter in RVOG.Mod #6)
