Via Backports.  I can't do it via SRU because this is a new release with
new features, which is not suitable to be SRUed.

Title:
   [BPO] elfutils/0.188-1 from Lunar

Status in elfutils package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in elfutils source package in Jammy:
  New

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * elfutils ships many ELF/DWARF related tools that are interesting
  for users and developers of low level code.

   * More specifically, elfutils ships the debuginfod library and
  server. The latest upstream version (0.188) introduces many
  interesting features that should make the life of debuginfod users
  easier; one of those features is the ability to serve sections of
  DWARF, instead of the whole file.  I intend to update Ubuntu's
  debuginfod instance to use this new package in the near future.

  [Scope]

   * I will backport elfutils/0.188 from Lunar.

   * I will backport elfutils/0.188 to Jammy.

  [Other Info]

   * None so far.
