x86/mkelf32: pad load segment to 2Mb boundary

In order to legitimately set up initial mappings past _end[], we need
to make sure that the entire mapped range is inside a RAM region.
Therefore we need to inform the bootloader (or alike) that our allocated
size is larger than just the next SECTION_ALIGN-ed boundary past _end[].

This allows dropping a command line option from the tool, which was
introduced to work around a supposed linker bug, when the problem was
really Xen's.

While adjusting adjacent code, correct the argc check to also cover the
case correctly when --notes was passed.
