Don't include dwz support by default.
By default the dwz multi file support is not included. This means any DW_FORM_GNU_ref_alt or DW_FORM_GNU_strp_alt encountered in libdw will just produce an error message. A new configure option --enable-dwz is needed to include it for those we wish to test it. The dwz test is also disabled by default. Signed-off-by: Mark Wielaard <mjw@redhat.com>
