Thomas Petazzoni 71c05023d7 linux: add support for ELF vmlinux image
The ELF vmlinux image found at the root of the kernel source tree is
the format that Qemu needs when emulating mips(el) or ppc targets, so
add support for it.

This option will re-use the same kernel sources as the one
that have been used for the kernel headers of the
cross-compiling toolchain. Having the same version for the
kernel running on the system and for the kernel headers is
not a requirement, but using the same version allows to
download only one tarball of the kernel sources.
