Subject: [PATCH] fix: Use $srcdir in configure test for add-cfi script

Hello,

I noticed while building musl with musl-cross-make[1] that adding --enable-debug to the MUSL_CONFIG variable did not enable CFI directives even though I was compiling for a supported platform (x86_64):

> checking whether assembler supports CFI directives... no

I believe the issue is that configure tests for "tools/add-cfi.$ARCH.awk" instead of "$srcdir/tools/add-cfi.$ARCH.awk". Changing configure as described resolves this and I've confirmed the debugging information is present in resulting binary.

> checking whether assembler supports CFI directives... yes

Below is a patch for this change.
