[Buildroot] [PATCH 0/4] Use only elfutils package to provide the libelf library

Hi,

The libelf is currently provided by 2 packages libelf and
elfutils. The first package provides an old version of the libelf
which is no more compatible with a recent version of ltrace. Having
both libraries could lead to the link on the wrong one during the
build. It is what happened for ltrace.

To avoid this kind of issue, this patch set switch the dependecy from
libelf to elfutils and finally removed the elfutils package.

I built and fully tested ltrace on ARM.
I built and just ran avrdude on ARM.
I didn't build kexec-lite.

Thanks,

Gregory
