objtool: Also include tools/include/uapi
When building objtool against a sysroot that contains a stripped down
version of the UAPI headers, the following error happens:
In file included from arch/x86/decode.c:10:

As hinted by the error, this is because <sysroot>/include/linux/stddef.h
(a stripped-down version of uapi/include/linux/stddef.h) includes
linux/compiler_types.h directly. However, this gets resolved to
tools/include/linux/compiler_types.h, which is not expected to be
included directly.
To resolve this, I added tools/include/uapi to the include paths when
building objtool. With this trick, linux/stddef.h is resolved to
tools/include/uapi/linux/stddef.h, which doesn't include
linux/compiler_types.h.
