The previous change, 2d385be6152, assumed !PAGE_VALID meant that
the page would be unmapped by the elf image.  However, since we
reserved the entire image space via mmap, PAGE_VALID will always
be set.  Instead, assume PROT_NONE for the same condition.

Furthermore, assume bss is only ever present for writable segments,
and that there is no page overlap between PT_LOAD segments.
Instead of an assert, return false to indicate failure.

Caller will fail with random errno and "Error mapping file".
Not really accurate. Maybe we could pass an Error* paramenter
to zero_bss().

Similar random errno and "Error mapping file".
