scripts/populate: optimise search loop

Curently, populate will iterate over all ELF (shared objects|executables)
to look for missing NEEDED DSOs, adding to the list at every iterations
of the search loop.

Instead of looking again at previously handled ELF files, recursively
resolve every ELf files.

Also, in case there are a whole lot of files (more than the shell can
accept as arguments list, or creating a command line longer than the
shell can cope with), use a temporary file with the list of files
to search for missing dependencies.

     6       'Bare metal' refers to those programs that run without any kernel.

     8       You probably want to say 'y' here if you plan to use your compiler
     9       to build bootloaders. It is not yet suitable to build Linux kernels,
    10       though, because the APCI stuff relies on the target C library headers
    11       being available?!?!...
