readelf and objdump use --sframe, as use --gsframe.  do they really need to
be named differently ?

I used --gsframe to keep it aligned with other debug info related 
command like options like --gdwarf*, --gstabs in GNU as.

readelf/objdump uses --sframe instead, because other similar options are 
--ctf=<number|name> and --debug-dump=[].

I chose the names so they align well in each program.

Thanks
Indu
