* Rebuild the gadgets for the libcs the gem does not ship

805 of the 883 entries were regenerated from the libcs they were built
from. They dated from 2023 and predate v2.0.0 and v2.1.0, so they carried
gadgets that no longer work and missed ones that do: 10,326 recorded
gadgets became 41,417.

Nothing was added or deleted, and no shipped entry changed -- the packaged
gem is byte-identical and this reaches users only through a remote BuildID
lookup. The BuildID of every download was checked against the filename
before regenerating, so an entry can only be rewritten from the same binary
it named.

78 could not be rebuilt and keep their old content: 30 whose libc has since
disappeared from libcdb, 10 that record no usable source at all (libcdb has
no package matching their BuildID -- searched exhaustively by version), and
38 that were already current.

The architecture comment moves to elftools' present spelling, which is what
the one builds_info spec was pinning.

* Recover the last 40 from the distributions' own archives

libcdb no longer has 30 of the libcs it was the recorded source for, and 10
entries never named a source at all. Both distributions keep everything they
have ever published, so the libcs came from there instead: Launchpad for
Ubuntu, which still serves binaries removed from the pool years ago, and
snapshot.debian.org for Debian. All 40 were found, BuildID-matched as
before.

Several Debian ones matched the x32-hosted package rather than the
amd64-hosted one of the same version -- a different binary with a different
BuildID, which is why libcdb's copy did not match. The libc inside such a
package is an ordinary 64-bit or i386 one.

The 10 that recorded no source now record the archive URL they came from, so
they are re-derivable from here on, and the whole database is current: 883
of 883 entries, 43,410 gadgets.
