Refactor objdump execution to use BaseObjdumper class
## Summary
This PR refactors the objdump functionality to improve code organization and separation of concerns.

## Changes
- Moved objdump execution logic from `BaseCompiler` to `BaseObjdumper` class
- Added `executeObjdump` method to `BaseObjdumper` that encapsulates execution logic
- Added `ObjdumpResult` interface for better type safety
- Added comprehensive unit tests for the objdumper functionality

## Benefits
- **Better separation of concerns**: Objdump execution logic is now in the appropriate class
- **Improved testability**: The objdumper can be tested independently
- **Reusability**: Other parts of the codebase can now use the objdumper's execution method
- **Type safety**: Clear interfaces and types for objdump results

## Testing
- Added unit tests in `test/objdumper-tests.ts` covering:
  - Successful execution
  - Error handling
  - Post-processing functionality
  - Argument generation
- All existing tests pass
- Maintains backward compatibility
