    Fix GDB build: ELF support check & -lzstd
    
    GDB fails to build for me, on Ubuntu 20.04.  I get:
    
     ...
       CXXLD  gdb
     /usr/bin/ld: linux-tdep.o: in function `linux_corefile_thread(thread_info*, linux_corefile_thread_data*)':
     /home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/src/gdb/linux-tdep.c:1831: undefined reference to `gcore_elf_build_thread_register_notes(gdbarch*, thread_info*, gdb_signal, bfd*, std::unique_ptr<char, gdb::xfree_deleter<char> >*, int*)'
     /usr/bin/ld: linux-tdep.o: in function `linux_make_corefile_notes(gdbarch*, bfd*, int*)':
     /home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/src/gdb/linux-tdep.c:2117: undefined reference to `gcore_elf_make_tdesc_note(bfd*, std::unique_ptr<char, gdb::xfree_deleter<char> >*, int*)'
     collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
     make[2]: *** [Makefile:2149: gdb] Error 1
     make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/build/gdb'
     make[1]: *** [Makefile:11847: all-gdb] Error 2
     make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/build'
     make: *** [Makefile:1004: all] Error 2
    
    Those undefined functions exist in gdb/gcore-elf.c, which is only
    included in the build if GDB's configure thinks that the target you're
    configuring for is an ELF target.  GDB's configure thinks my system
    isn't ELF, which is incorrect.
    
    For the ELF support check, gdb/config.log shows:
    
     configure:17387: checking for ELF support in BFD
     configure:17407: gcc -o conftest -I/home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/src/gdb/../include -I../bfd -I/home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/src/gdb/../bfd -g3 -O0      -L../bfd -L../libiberty  -lzstd   conftest.c -lbfd -liberty -lz  -lncursesw -lm -ldl  >&5
     /usr/bin/ld: ../bfd/libbfd.a(compress.o): in function `decompress_contents':
     /home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/src/bfd/compress.c:42: undefined reference to `ZSTD_decompress'
     /usr/bin/ld: /home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/src/bfd/compress.c:44: undefined reference to `ZSTD_isError'
     /usr/bin/ld: ../bfd/libbfd.a(compress.o): in function `bfd_compress_section_contents':
     /home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/src/bfd/compress.c:195: undefined reference to `ZSTD_compress'
     /usr/bin/ld: /home/pedro/gdb/binutils-gdb/src/bfd/compress.c:198: undefined reference to `ZSTD_isError'
     collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
     configure:17407: $? = 1
     ...
     configure:17417: result: no
    
    Note how above, in the gcc command line, "-lzstd" appears before
    "-lbfd".  That explain the link failure.  It should appear after, like
    -lz does.
    
    This commit fixes it, by moving ZSTD_LIBS from LDFLAGS to LIBS, next
    to -lz, in GDB_AC_CHECK_BFD, and regenerating gdb/configure.
