Makes it easier to navigate based on an RVA
PE and ELF files use a lot of RVAs in it. Right now, whenever the user wishes to navigate to it, he needs to add that address to the image base, and then press "G" to call up the "Go To Address" dialog, and then type the address in it. This is quite inconvenient. We should make it easier to do this.
An example of RVAs in exception info:
I propose two ways for it:
- [ ] When an address token is double-clicked and a specific key is hold down (e.g., Shift), we treat the address as RVA and automatically add the image base to it before navigating
- [ ] Add a checkbox in the "Go To Address" dialog to treat the address as RVA
Related to https://github.com/Vector35/binaryninja-api/issues/2098 and https://github.com/Vector35/binaryninja-api/issues/2092. Before we get there, the changes suggested in this issue should be served as a workaround.
~~Or maybe even better, first try to navigate as an offset; if it fails, then try to navigate it as RVA?~~
Update: on a second thought, this might create confusion. So it is still better done via an explicit key hold
