elf2dmp: use Linux mmap with MAP_NORESERVE when possible

Glib's g_mapped_file_new maps file with PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE and
MAP_PRIVATE. This leads to premature physical memory allocation of dump
file size on Linux hosts and may fail. On Linux, mapping the file with
MAP_NORESERVE limits the allocation by available memory.
