btf: move pahole check in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh to lib/Kconfig.debug
When DEBUG_INFO_DWARF5 is selected, pahole 1.21+ is required to enable DEBUG_INFO_BTF. When DEBUG_INFO_DWARF4 or DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT is selected, DEBUG_INFO_BTF can be enabled without pahole installed, but a build error will occur in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh: LD .tmp_vmlinux1 BTF: .tmp_vmlinux1: pahole (pahole) is not available Failed to generate BTF for vmlinux Try to disable CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF We did not guard DEBUG_INFO_BTF by PAHOLE_VERSION when previously discussed [1]. However, commit 613fe1692377 ("kbuild: Add CONFIG_PAHOLE_VERSION") added CONFIG_PAHOLE_VERSION after all. Now several CONFIG options, as well as the combination of DEBUG_INFO_BTF and DEBUG_INFO_DWARF5, are guarded by PAHOLE_VERSION. The remaining compile-time check in scripts/link-vmlinux.sh now appears to be an awkward inconsistency. This commit adopts Nathan's original work.
