x86inc: Add debug symbols indicating sizes of compiled functions
Some debuggers/profilers use this metadata to determine which function a given instruction is in; without it they get can confused by local labels (if you haven't stripped those). On the other hand, some tools are still confused even with this metadata. e.g. this fixes `gdb`, but not `perf`. Currently only implemented for ELF. Signed-off-by: Anton Khirnov <anton@khirnov.net>
