Some libc's like musl libc don't provide execinfo.h since it's not part of
POSIX. In order to fix compilation on musl, only include execinfo.h if
available (HAVE_BACKTRACE_SUPPORT)
This was discovered with c104c16073b7 ("Kunit to check the longest symbol
length") which starts to include linux/kallsyms.h with Alpine Linux'
configs.
