Table size min was set to <=4 items, but readelf on ubuntu20
had a switch table with exactly 4 elements.  This caused
FII to miss the table size and subsequently include _many_ extra IBTs.
Ultimately, Zipr failed by trying to 68-sled an entire function due to
FII's failure.

Starting in new(er) versions of Ubuntu distros, PLT entries use

The old method involved writing assembly to a file, asking an external assembler to do the conversion, then processing the binary file to read the binary instructions back out.  This method is slow and relies on nasm, which isn't available on all machines or for the full variety of supported architectures.  The replacement is keystone, a 3rd party library that is linked to provide assembly->binary conversion.
