[PATCH v3 1/7] tools build: Add feature check for elfutils libasm

[Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>]

This commit introduces a build-time feature test for the elfutils libasm
library in the shared tools/build system. It adds the test program and
updates the Makefiles to attempt building it to detect support.

Note on static linking: pkg-config for libdw/libelf on modern systems
does not list -lebl as a dependency. Older versions of elfutils that
require explicitly linking -lebl statically are unsupported by this
feature check.
