After copying Arm64's perf archive with object files and perf.data file
to x86 laptop, the x86's perf kernel symbol resolution fails. It
outputs 'unknown' for all symbols parsing.
This issue is root caused by the function elf__needs_adjust_symbols(),
x86 perf tool uses one weak version, Arm64 (and powerpc) has rewritten
their own version. elf__needs_adjust_symbols() decides if need to parse
symbols with the relative offset address; but x86 building uses the weak
function which misses to check for the elf type 'ET_DYN', so that it
cannot parse symbols in Arm DSOs due to the wrong result from
elf__needs_adjust_symbols().
The DSO parsing should not depend on any specific architecture perf
building; e.g. x86 perf tool can parse Arm and Arm64 DSOs, vice versa.
And confirmed by Naveen N. Rao that powerpc64 kernels are not being
built as ET_DYN anymore and change to ET_EXEC.
This patch removes the arch specific functions for Arm64 and powerpc and
changes elf__needs_adjust_symbols() as a common function.
In the common elf__needs_adjust_symbols(), it checks an extra condition
'ET_DYN' for elf header type. With this fixing, the Arm64 DSO can be
parsed properly with x86's perf tool.

v3: Changed to check for ET_DYN across all architectures.
v2: Fixed Arm64 and powerpc native building.

Currently when cross compiling perf tool for ARM64 on my x86 machine I
get this error:
arch/arm64/util/sym-handling.c:9:10: fatal error: gelf.h: No such file or directory
#include <gelf.h>
For the build, libelf is reported off:
Auto-detecting system features:
...
... libelf: [ OFF ]
Indeed, test-libelf is not built successfully:
more ./build/feature/test-libelf.make.output
test-libelf.c:2:10: fatal error: libelf.h: No such file or directory
#include <libelf.h>
^~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
I have no such problems natively compiling on ARM64, and I did not
previously have this issue for cross compiling. Fix by relocating the
gelf.h include.

Now that map.h isn't included by any other header, we can check where
it is really needed, i.e. we can remove it and be sure that it isn't
being obtained indirectly.

On an arm64 machine running a CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE=y kernel, perf
kernel symbol resolution fails. Debugging saw symsrc_init calling the
default elf__needs_adjust_symbols() where checks for an ET_DYN (3)
ehdr.e_type failed when they should have succeeded.
Fix by adopting powerpc version of the weak elf__needs_adjust_symbols()
function, as done in commit d2332098331f ("perf probe ppc: Fix symbol
fixup issues due to ELF type").
Prior to this patch, perf test 1 would fail:
$ sudo oldperf test -v 1 |& head
1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms :
test child forked, pid 33374
Looking at the vmlinux_path (8 entries long)
Using /usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux for symbols

...
After applying this patch, perf test 1 now succeeds:
$ sudo ./newperf test -v 1 |& head
1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms :
