buildid: stash away kernels build ID on init
Parse the kernel's build ID at initialization so that other code can print a hex format string representation of the running kernel's build ID. This will be used in the kdump and dump_stack code so that developers can easily locate the vmlinux debug symbols for a crash/stacktrace.
