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>.

+# Head objects
+#
+# The objects listed here are placed at the head of vmlinux. A typical use-case
+# is an object that contains the entry point. This is kept for compatibility
+# with head-y, which Kbuild used to support.
+#
+# A counter approach is to control the section placement by the linker script.
+# The code marked as __HEAD goes into the ".head.text" section, which is placed
+# before the normal ".text" section.
+#
+# If you can achieve the correct code ordering by linker script, please delete
+# the entry from this file.
