Bug description:
We have an increasing amount of ABI information which is currently
exposed via the primary binary packages. Little to none of this is
relevant to the end-user and does not deserve to use up space on their
system. Also the kernel developer who needs to update this data does
not want to downloads 10s of Megabytes of binary packages to extract
this information. Pull it all out and generate all data that would
require the actual binaries at kernel build time, package all of this
information into a new linux-buildinfo package for consumption. This
package is not installed by default.
