Add a --{enable,disable}-progs configure option

​

Add a --{enable,disable}-progs configuration option to elfutils. This

allows to selectively disable the compilation of the elfutils programs

(in which case only the libraries are built and installed). This is

useful because the programs are often not needed, and also because

building the programs against uClibc causes several issues (lack of

obstack_printf() in uClibc for example).

​

Based on the former patch by Thomas Petazzoni.
