binfmt_flat: don't offset the data start

Ever since the initial commit of the binfmt_flat shared library support back in the bitkeeper days we've offset the actual in-memory .data start by one field per possible shared library, or 1 in case shared library support isn't enabled. I can't find anything in the loader that actually makes use of it, nor was it present before shared library support it.
