Transform vmlinuz into a fully debuggable vmlinux that can be used with /proc/kcore

This tools makes it possible to use /proc/kcore for debugging or forensics analysis without having to recompile your kernel with symbols, or download a special debug kernel image. This software is actually from a much larger project called 'Kernel Voodoo' which is still private. Kernel Voodoo uses 'kdress' to create a vmlinux that can be used as a way to easily navigate kernel memory by symbol and also have a valid signature to compare code against from /proc/kcore.
