debug/elf: add version information to all dynamic symbols

Currently, File.ImportedSymbols is the only API that exposes the GNU
symbol version information for dynamic symbols. Unfortunately, it also
filters to specific types of symbols, and only returns symbol names.

The cgo tool is going to need symbol version information for more
symbols. In order to support this and make the API more orthogonal,
this CL adds version information to the Symbol type and updates
File.DynamicSymbols to fill this in. This has the downside of
increasing the size of Symbol, but seems to be the most natural API
for exposing this. I also explored 1) adding a method to get the
version information for the i'th dynamic symbol, but we don't use
symbol indexes anywhere else in the API, and it's not clear if this
index would be 0-based or 1-based, and 2) adding a
DynamicSymbolVersions method that returns a slice of version
information that parallels the DynamicSymbols slice, but that's less
efficient to implement and harder to use.

For #31912.
