create-diff-object: Support dynamic debug on newer kernels 

After Linux commit 47cdd64be483 ("dynamic_debug: refactor
dynamic_pr_debug and friends"), the name of the static local variable
used for dynamic printks is no longer "descriptor".

Make the is_special_static() check broader such that it doesn't care
about the variable name, and just whitelists any variable in the
__verbose section.

Fixes #990.
