For executable images, the address of the first
byte of the section relative to the image base
when the section is loaded into memory. For
object files, this field is the address of the first
byte before relocation is applied; for simplicity,
compilers should set this to zero. Otherwise, it is
an arbitrary value that is subtracted from offsets
during relocation.
