binutils, gdb: support zstd compressed debug sections
PR29397 PR29563: Add new configure option --with-zstd which defaults to
auto. If pkgconfig/libzstd.pc is found, define HAVE_ZSTD and support
zstd compressed debug sections for most tools.
* bfd: for addr2line, objdump --dwarf, gdb, etc
* gas: support --compress-debug-sections=zstd
* ld: support ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD input and --compress-debug-sections=zstd
* objcopy: support ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD input for
--decompress-debug-sections and --compress-debug-sections=zstd
* gdb: support ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD input. The bfd change references zstd
symbols, so gdb has to link against -lzstd in this patch.
If zstd is not supported, ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD input triggers an error. We
can avoid HAVE_ZSTD if binutils-gdb imports zstd/ like zlib/, but this
is too heavyweight, so don't do it for now.
```
