Subject: [PATCH v6 01/13] buildid: Only consider GNU notes for build ID parsing

Some kernel elf files have various notes that also happen to have an elf
note type of '3', which matches NT_GNU_BUILD_ID but the note name isn't
"GNU". For example, this note trips up the existing logic:

Owner Data size Description
Xen 0x00000008 Unknown note type: (0x00000003) description data: 00 00 00 ffffff80 ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff

Let's make sure that it is a GNU note when parsing the build ID so that
we can use this function to parse a vmlinux's build ID too.
