bloat-o-meter: include read-only data section in report

I'm not sure why the read-only data section is excluded from the report, it seems as relevant as the other data sections (b and d). I've stripped the symbols starting with __mod_ as they can have their names dynamically generated and thus comparison between binaries is not possible.
