    binutils: update to 2.40.

    This release contains numerous bug fixes, and also the following new
    features:

      * Support for more Intel, ARM, Risc-V architecture extensions.

      * Support for generating and reading compressed debug sections
        using the zstd compression format.

      * Support for the SFRAME unwind format.

      * Support for the CTF debug format.

      * The objdump tool now has an option to enhance its disassembly
        output by showing all of the symbols that match an address,
        instead of just the first symbol.

      * The objdump tool's disassembler is now also able to use colors to
        distinguish differents parts of each instruction.  This feature
        is only supported by a limited set of architectures at the
        moment.

      * The linker (ld) has a new command line option to disable the
        generation of warning and error messages.  This can be useful
        when it is known that the link will not be successful, but there
        is still a need to create a binary.
