Starting with RHEL 9.2 and Fedora 35, debuginfod is enabled by default,
which leads to significant startup times of various tools
from the elfutils package (namely, readelf and objdump).
Unset DEBUGINFOD_URLS to avoid it.
* find-provides.ksyms (DEBUGINFOD_URLS): Unset.
* find-requires.ksyms (DEBUGINFOD_URLS): Ditto.
* kernel-srpm-macros.spec (Release): Bump to 18.
(%changelog): Add a record.

Linux commit v5.19-rc1~139^2~2 ("kbuild: link symbol CRCs at final link,
removing CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS") has broken the assumption aobut
the placement of non-absolute CRC symbols in .rodata (and also affects
the architectures that used to have these symbols as absolute); rewrite
the parsing by utilising "objdump -t" output to figure out
the section(s) where the __crc_* symbols are stored and process
it instead of the hard-coded ".rodata" section. The change also speeds
up the processing a bit, around 33% on synthetic tests:
$ time sh -c 'find ./lib/modules/5.14.0-258.el9.ppc64le -name "*.ko.xz" | find-provides.ksyms.old > /dev/null 2> /dev/null'

* find-provides.ksyms: Process "objdump -t" output to get the list
of sections where __crc_* symbol contents are placed; retrieve
each one with "readelf -R" and supply it to an awk script that cuts
the required part of it for each __crc_* symbol in that section.
* find-requires.ksyms (all_provides): Likewise.

Commit binutils-2_33~1385[1] has changed (and binutils-2_35~1768[2]
has not reverted) the calculated type for symbols in read-write .rodata section
from 'R' to 'D' on architectures where CONFIG_MODULE_REL_CRCS is enabled
(namely, ppc64* and s390*), since, apparently, many kernel modules have it indeed
read-write. Work around it by matching both D and R as possible __crc_* symbol
type.

Avoid running sed on the whole "nm" output and also avoid "sed | awk"
pipe in favor of a single awk call. Overall, this gives around 20%
speedup on some quick synthetic tests:

It leads to some regressions in requires generation precision, though,
as it is no longer possible to exclude requires that are satisfied
by other kmods in the package. And calling a script on each file (instead
of calling it on the whole file list at once) does not make things faster,
either (so much for "sanity and benefit").
* find-provides.ksyms: Check for "$@" as well.
* find-requires.ksyms: Likewise.
* kernel-srpm-macros.spec (Source104, Source105, Source106): New
attribute files.
(%install): Install provided_ksyms.attr, required_ksyms.attr,
and modalias.attr into "%{buildroot}%{_fileattrsdir}".
(%files -n kernel-rpm-macros): Add provided_ksyms.attr,
required_ksyms.attr, and modalias.attr.
kmodtool: Remove "%global _use_internal_dependency_generator 0".
macros.kmp: Remove %__find_provides and %__find_requires.
