Description

Display raw and virtual offsets in verbose mode.

This could help to match things up more quickly between FLOSS output, the file, and disassembler view.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the verbose output generation code for Go and Rust string extraction in the source code. Find where each string's metadata is printed and add the file offset and virtual address fields.
