Allocating the header lets us write it at a later time and hence also
allows us to change section and segment table offsets until we
finally write it.

Where are you making use of this?
You set e_shstrndx in prepare_elf_section_hdrs, but that is not required, is it?
As far as I understand we know shdr_num after dump_init so that could be moved.
