Like for other build scripts, use Python interpreter to run pmdinfogen.
Adjust wrapper script accordingly and also don't suppress stderr from ar
and pmdinfogen.
Add python3-pyelftools to CI configuration. The package is available on
all major distributions. FreeBSD has no system requirements section in
its GSG. Currently neither Windows uses pmdinfogen, nor is COFF (PE)
supported.
