Subject: [PATCH v1 6/9] perf symbol: Use fallbacks with filename__read_build_id
Try libbfd, libelf and then symbol-minimal when trying to read a build
ID. Always compile in symbol-minimal so that it is the fallback of
last resort. Rename libelf reading code. Move the decompression code
into symbol.c and allow its use with the symbol-minimal version.
