Hi,

I found there is no documentation for build dependencies in gendwarfksyms
while digging into Rust drivers. Though Yuli added libdw-dev to the build
dependencies for packaging [1], it seems that there is no documentation
about it.

This series documents the build dependencies of gendwarfksyms, adds a few
examples for installing these dependencies on some distributions and
introduces indentation style cleanup as suggested.
