arm64: scs: Work around full LTO issue with dynamic SCS 

Full LTO takes the '-mbranch-protection=none' passed to the compiler
when generating the dynamic shadow call stack patching code as a hint to
stop emitting PAC instructions altogether. (Thin LTO appears unaffected
by this)

Work around this by stripping unwind tables from the object in question,
which should be sufficient to prevent the patching code from attempting
to patch itself.
