bpftool requires libelf, and zlib for decompressing /proc/config.gz. zlib is a transitive dependency via libelf, and became mandatory since elfutils 0.165 (Jan 2016). The feature check of libelf is already done in the elfdep target of tools/lib/bpf/Makefile, pulled in by bpftool via a dependency on libbpf.a. Add a similar feature check for zlib.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
