Dodji Seketeli 3aa51dac47 Use the library to implement ABI comparison in abipkgdiff
Until now, abipkgdiff was spawning a process running the 'abidiff'
command line tool to perform ABI comparison on binaries.  This helped
in sketching what was possible with this tool.  However, it's
sub-optimal in a final setup so this patch uses the libabigail library
to perform that comparison.

	* tools/abipkgdiff.cc (compare): In the overload for elf_file, use
	abigail::comparison::compute_diff() to compare the ABI of two
	corpora.  The corpora themselves is read using
	abigail::dwarf_reader::read_corpus_from_elf().  This cleans up the
	output of the tool because nothing is emitted to standard output
	if the two ABI corpora compares equal.

This is the Application Binary Interface Generic Analysis and
Instrumentation Library.

It aims at constructing, manipulating, serializing and de-serializing
ABI-relevant artifacts.

The set of artifacts that we are intersted is made of quantities like
types, variable, fonctions and declarations of a given library or
program.  For a given library or program this set of quantities is
called an ABI corpus.

This library aims at (among other things) providing a way to comparing
two ABI Corpuses, provide detailed information about their
differences, and help build tools to infer interesting conclusions
about these differences.
