Subject: libtraceevent: Fix build with binutils 2.35
From: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 39efdd94e314336f4acbac4c07e0f37bdc3bef71 upstream.
In binutils 2.35, 'nm -D' changed to show symbol versions along with
symbol names, with the usual @@ separator. When generating
libtraceevent-dynamic-list we need just the names, so strip off the
version suffix if present.
