Ihor Solodrai b0dcdcb9ae resolve_btfids: Fix linker flags detection
The "|| echo -lzstd" default makes zstd an unconditional link
dependency of resolve_btfids. On systems where libzstd-dev is not
installed and pkg-config fails, the linker fails:

  ld: cannot find -lzstd: No such file or directory

libzstd is a transitive dependency of libelf, so the -lzstd flag is
strictly necessary only for static builds [1].

Remove ZSTD_LIBS variable, and instead set LIBELF_LIBS depending on
whether the build is static or not. Use $(HOSTPKG_CONFIG) as primary
source of the flags list.

Also add a default value for HOSTPKG_CONFIG in case it's not built via
the toplevel Makefile. Pass it from selftests/bpf too.
