  Based on Python version of pmdinfogen, deferred until 21.02:

    http://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/list/?series=13153

There are a few Python libraries for PE/COFF, none of which suits the need,
so a custom COFF parser is used.  Advice is welcome, options considered:

* py-coff (https://github.com/jeppeter/py-coff): doesn't give access to
  symbol values, Python 2 code inside, not very popular.

* pefile (https://github.com/erocarrera/pefile): for PE (executables and
  libraries), not COFF (objects); most popular.

* pype32-py3 (https://github.com/crackinglandia/pype32): ditto, less popular.

A script to extract object files from library is still required. Meson has
extract_all_objects(), but they can't be passed as inputs to custom_target()
until 0.52.0 (commit f431cff809).

v2:
    Don't require elftools on Windows (Jie Zhou).

Dmitry Kozlyuk (4):
  pmdinfogen: support COFF
  pmdinfogen: allow multiple input files
  buildtools: support object file extraction for Windows
  build: enable pmdinfogen for Windows
