elfutils: Fix header compatibility with glibc 2.21 
Regression introduced by df2b9b48cbf8eb765760c699843e43457d844bee.

This breaks the build for ltrace and other programs using libelf,
because the header file relies on features from glibc >= 2.22.

Here is an excerpt from the log output of the configure script from
ltrace:

In file included from ...elfutils-0.165/include/gelf.h:32:0,
                 from conftest.c:57:
...elfutils-0.165/include/libelf.h:280:8: error: unknown type name 'Elf32_Chdr'
 extern Elf32_Chdr *elf32_getchdr (Elf_Scn *__scn);
        ^
...elfutils-0.165/include/libelf.h:281:8: error: unknown type name 'Elf64_Chdr'
 extern Elf64_Chdr *elf64_getchdr (Elf_Scn *__scn);
        ^
In file included from conftest.c:57:0:
...elfutils-0.165/include/gelf.h:89:9: error: unknown type name 'Elf64_Chdr'
 typedef Elf64_Chdr GElf_Chdr;
         ^

The issue has been reported in the Debian bug tracker at
https://bugs.debian.org/810885 and I'm using the patch from Mark
Wielaard that has been posted there which adds compatibility for older
glibc versions.

Subject: [PATCH] libelf: Add ELF compression types and defines to libelf.h for
older glibc.
Older glibc elf.h might not define the new ELF compression defines and
types. If not just define them in libelf.h directly to make the libelf
headers work on older glibc systems.
Also include a testcase to check the libelf headers build against the
system elf.h.
