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>.

+
+The design of the network interface message level setting.
+
+History
+-------
+
+ The design of the debugging message interface was guided and
+ constrained by backwards compatibility previous practice.  It is useful
+ to understand the history and evolution in order to understand current
+ practice and relate it to older driver source code.
+
+ From the beginning of Linux, each network device driver has had a local
+ integer variable that controls the debug message level.  The message
+ level ranged from 0 to 7, and monotonically increased in verbosity.
+
+ The message level was not precisely defined past level 3, but were
+ always implemented within +-1 of the specified level.  Drivers tended
+ to shed the more verbose level messages as they matured.
+
+   - 0  Minimal messages, only essential information on fatal errors.
+   - 1  Standard messages, initialization status.  No run-time messages
+   - 2  Special media selection messages, generally timer-driver.
+   - 3  Interface starts and stops, including normal status messages
+   - 4  Tx and Rx frame error messages, and abnormal driver operation
+   - 5  Tx packet queue information, interrupt events.
+   - 6  Status on each completed Tx packet and received Rx packets
+   - 7  Initial contents of Tx and Rx packets
+
+ Initially this message level variable was uniquely named in each driver
+ e.g. "lance_debug", so that a kernel symbolic debugger could locate and
+ modify the setting.  When kernel modules became common, the variables
+ were consistently renamed to "debug" and allowed to be set as a module
+ parameter.
+
+ This approach worked well.  However there is always a demand for
+ additional features.  Over the years the following emerged as
+ reasonable and easily implemented enhancements
+
+   - Using an ioctl() call to modify the level.
+   - Per-interface rather than per-driver message level setting.
+   - More selective control over the type of messages emitted.
+
+ The netif_msg recommendation adds these features with only a minor
+ complexity and code size increase.
+
+ The recommendation is the following points
+
+  - Retaining the per-driver integer variable "debug" as a module
+    parameter with a default level of '1'.
+
+  - Adding a per-interface private variable named "msg_enable".  The
+    variable is a bit map rather than a level, and is initialized as::
+
+       1 << debug
+
+    Or more precisely::
+
+	debug < 0 ? 0 : 1 << min(sizeof(int)-1, debug)
+
+    Messages should changes from::
+
+      if (debug > 1)
+	   printk(MSG_DEBUG "%s: ...
+
+    to::
+
+      if (np->msg_enable & NETIF_MSG_LINK)
+	   printk(MSG_DEBUG "%s: ...
+
+
+The set of message levels is named
