Accepting request 514152 from home:jengelh:branches:Base:System

- Update package descriptions.
- Rename libebl1 to libebl-plugins as these are not linked,
  but dlopened using their unversioned libebl_$ARCH.so name.
- Have libelf1 require libebl-plugins (libebl.a, which does the
  dlopen call, is staticly built into libelf1). This is necessary
  for pahole to display its results. [boo#1049871]
