Stephen and 0-DAY CI Kernel Test Service reported broken cross build
for arm (arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc (GCC) 9.3.0), with following output:
/tmp/ccMS5uth.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccMS5uth.s:69: Error: unrecognized symbol type ""
/tmp/ccMS5uth.s:82: Error: unrecognized symbol type ""
Having '@object' for .type diretive is wrong because '@' is comment
character for some architectures. Using STT_OBJECT instead that should
work everywhere.
Also using HOST* variables to build resolve_btfids so it's properly
build in crossbuilds (stolen from objtool's Makefile).

The resolve_btfids tool scans elf object for .BTF_ids section
and resolves its symbols with BTF ID values.
It will be used to during linking time to resolve arrays of BTF
ID values used in verifier, so these IDs do not need to be
resolved in runtime.
The expected layout of .BTF_ids section is described in main.c
header. Related kernel changes are coming in following changes.
