A patch which is working on a musl system

Created a patch which allows this package to build on musl.
I took a cmake module from some google project (https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/devel/pahole/pahole/+/refs/heads/master/cmake/modules/Findobstack.cmake).
I have only tested this on a musl system but from the description it should work fine on glibc too.
