[ELF] - Do not crash when unable to parse ELF object file.

[grimar]

Summary

createELFObj() may call error(...), for example when file is too short.
In that case header is not set and following line lead to crash:

EMachine = ELFObj.getHeader()->e_machine;

Patch fixes the issue.

I wonder may be we can just make this fatal() ?
It is not called when file not found, but only when there is something wrong with it.

This seems very weird. HasError should be used at major checkpoints, and we shouldn't have so many checkpoints. It is on the other hand called for every instantiation of the class.

What about my comment above about switching error -> fatal in createELFObj() then ?
This should be consistent with latest ELF parsing hardening as we use fatal for broken objects and
createELFObj() now call error() even if ELF is broken, what I think is the only possible reason for fail.

That's probably better. We shouldn't do too much to try to recover from unrecoverable errors.
