objtool: Validate disassembler headers in libopcodes probegrafted

commit 3f2de814c059 ("objtool: Fix libopcodes linking with static libraries")
tested for libopcodes availability by linking a test snippet with a forward
declaration of disassemble_init_for_target().

However, testing symbol linkage with an extern declaration only verifies
the presence of the library (.so/.a) and bypasses checking for development
headers (binutils-dev). On systems where libopcodes is present without
development headers installed, the probe succeeds, enabling BUILD_DISAS.
Subsequent compilation of objtool then fails:

  fatal error: 'bfd.h' file not found
    113 | #include <bfd.h>

Additionally, the probe invokes $(HOSTCC) without $(HOSTCFLAGS), ignoring
any sysroot or include flags specified for the host compiler.

Fix this by including <bfd.h> and <dis-asm.h> directly in the test snippet,
passing $(HOSTCFLAGS) so host compiler options are respected, and defining
PACKAGE="objtool" to satisfy the configuration check in <bfd.h>.

+================
+/proc/sys/debug/
+================
+
+These files show up in ``/proc/sys/debug/``, depending on the
+kernel configuration:
+
+.. contents:: :local:
+
+exception-trace
+===============
+
+This flag controls whether the kernel prints information about unhandled
+signals (like segmentation faults) to the kernel log (``dmesg``).
+
+- ``0``: Unhandled signals are not traced.
+- ``1``: Information about unhandled signals is printed.
+
+The default value is ``1`` on most architectures (like x86, MIPS, RISC-V),
+but it is ``0`` on **arm64**.
+
+The actual information printed and the context provided varies
+significantly depending on the CPU architecture. For example:
+
+- On **x86**, it typically prints the instruction pointer (IP), error
+  code, and address that caused a page fault.
+- On **PowerPC**, it may print the next instruction pointer (NIP),
+  link register (LR), and other relevant registers.
+
+When enabled, this feature is often rate-limited to prevent the kernel
+log from being flooded during a crash loop.
+
+kprobes-optimization
+====================
+
+This flag enables or disables the optimization of Kprobes on certain
+architectures (like x86).
+
+- ``0``: Kprobes optimization is turned off.
+- ``1``: Kprobes optimization is turned on (default).
+
+For more details on Kprobes and its optimization, please refer to
+Documentation/trace/kprobes.rst.
