Neil Horman 98b0fdb0ff pmdinfogen: add buildtools and pmdinfogen utility
pmdinfogen is a tool used to parse object files and build json strings for
use in later determining hardware support in a dso or application binary.
pmdinfo looks for the non-exported symbol names this_pmd_name<n> and
this_pmd_tbl<n> (where n is a integer counter).  It records the name of
each of these tuples, using the later to find the symbolic name of the
pci_table for physical devices that the object supports.  With this
information, it outputs a C file with a single line of the form:

static char *<pmd_name>_driver_info[] __attribute__((used)) = " \
	PMD_DRIVER_INFO=<json string>";

Where <pmd_name> is the arbitrary name of the pmd, and <json_string> is the
json encoded string that hold relevant pmd information, including the pmd
name, type and optional array of pci device/vendor ids that the driver
supports.

This c file is suitable for compiling to object code, then relocatably
linking into the parent file from which the C was generated.  This creates
an entry in the string table of the object that can inform a later tool
about hardware support.
