The reason this is immediately useful is that it
The new version info format has a superset of symbols in the old format.
Since this is a tool for in-tree modules, we don't need to parse the old

With variable length symbol names from extended modversions, we can
enable MODVERSIONS alongside RUST due to support for its longer symbol

* modules.order has .o files when in a build dir, support this
* .mod.c source layout has changed, update regexes to match
* Add a stage 3, to be more robust against additional .mod.c content
