tools/resolve_btfids: Fix sections with wrong alignment

The data of compressed section should be aligned to 4
(for 32bit) or 8 (for 64 bit) bytes.

The binutils ld sets sh_addralign to 1, which makes libelf
fail with misaligned section error during the update as
reported by Jesper:

   FAILED elf_update(WRITE): invalid section alignment

While waiting for ld fix, we can fix compressed sections
sh_addralign value manually.

Adding warning in -vv mode when the fix is triggered:

  $ ./tools/bpf/resolve_btfids/resolve_btfids -vv vmlinux

  update ok for vmlinux

Another workaround is to disable compressed debug info data
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED kernel option.
