It will need its own XSM hook, but need not be strictly limited to just
dom0.

So funnily enough, I tried experimenting with this and it is fairly easy
to get the basics done.

Further TODO which I havn't done yet is make the --build-id optional on
finding a compatible `ld`, and some symbol magic to directly locate
.note.gnu.build-id

However, this in addition to some of Konrad's original patch is a good
start.
