Change pe/coff build-id section name to '.buildid'
The section name used to store the build-id on pe/coff is arbitrary, as it's
contents should be located using the pe/coff header's DataDirectory debug data
entry, not by using the section name.
But '.build-id' is not a good choice for that section name, as it is 9
characters long, and hence truncated to 8 characters when
--disable-long-section-names is used (which is the default, when producing an
executable with no dwarf debug sections, e.g. using ld --strip-all --build-id)
This truncation then breaks 'objcopy --only-keep-debug', which does use the
section name, due to concerns that keeping an arbitrary section which contains
the debug directory is not sensible.
