Public bug reported:

When developing BPF programs, it is sometimes useful to see the JIT
output. bpftool has a feature to do just that:

`sudo bpftool prog dump jited name <prog_name>`

On Ubuntu, running this command returns this error:

`Error: No JIT disassembly support`

After searching this error, it turns out that the feature is enabled
only when `binutils-dev` is found at build time.

I think this should be enabled by default in Ubuntu to improve the
developer experience with BPF.
