When linking statically, libraries may require other dependencies to be included to ld flags. In particular, libelf may require libzstd. Use pkg-config to determine such dependencies.

V3 -> V4: Added "2> /dev/null". V2 -> V3: Added missing "echo". V1 -> V2: Implemented fallback, referring to HOSTPKG_CONFIG.

Staring at tools/bpf/resolve_btfids/Makefile, I'm trying to understand why we cannot replicate something similar for BPF selftests?
For example, with your patch, why is it necessary to now have PKG_CONFIG and another HOSTPKG_CONFIG var?
It's because at least Debian does have wrappers of pkg-config for cross compile targets. You can find them below: https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=contents&keywords=pkg-config...
What about the below?

Having dedicated variables and checking --cflags are a good idea.
