"Unikernel" is a overly generic term. Technically the Linux kernel is already a "Unikernel". It's just most of the time its discussed as a negative not a positive and the term used is "monolith".

The project you want is "Yocoto", a complete toolchain to build customized embedded OS images.

You would have to build your own analyzer. Grepping the dependencies from the makefile/build data or just parsing the output of dpkg and translating that into yocto build specs is not unreasonable.
