libkmod: Add build-id item to kmod_module_get_info()

If available, add the build-id to the info list returned by
kmod_module_get_info(). This allows us to compare the build-id of a
loaded module versus the build-id of the file. It's rather cumbersome
command, but it works:

	$ ./build/modinfo -F build-id hid
	AE:7A:2E:37:E0:2B:31:D5:72:7C:87:87:15:8C:05:FA:77:7A:4F:57
	$ xxd -p -u -s16  /sys/module/hid/notes/.note.gnu.build-id  | sed 's/../&:/g;s/:$//'
	AE:7A:2E:37:E0:2B:31:D5:72:7C:87:87:15:8C:05:FA:77:7A:4F:57

An option to modinfo to really to just dump the raw value can be added
in future.
