FFmpeg, Android: Use llvm-readelf

In the current Android FFmpeg provisioning, we rely on the tool
'readelf' to be installed on the host. On macOS we currently pull this
tool through the Homebrew 'binutils' package. This has proven
unreliable on older macOS hosts.

The Android NDK provides the same tool under the name 'llvm-readelf'.
This patch makes us rely on this tool during provisioning, which is
guaranteed to be provided.
