kbuild: unify vdso_install rules

Currently, there is no standard implementation for vdso_install,
leading to various issues:

 1. Code duplication

    Many architectures duplicate similar code just for copying files
    to the install destination.

    Some architectures (arm, sparc, x86) create build-id symlinks,
    introducing more code duplication.

 2. Unintended updates of in-tree build artifacts

    The vdso_install rule depends on the vdso files to install.
    It may update in-tree build artifacts. This can be problematic,
    as explained in commit 19514fc665ff ("arm, kbuild: make
    "make install" not depend on vmlinux").

 3. Broken code in some architectures

    Makefile code is often copied from one architecture to another
    without proper adaptation.

    'make vdso_install' for parisc does not work.

    'make vdso_install' for s390 installs vdso64, but not vdso32.

To address these problems, this commit introduces a generic vdso_install
rule.

Architectures that support vdso_install need to define vdso-install-y
in arch/*/Makefile. vdso-install-y lists the files to install.

For example, arch/x86/Makefile looks like this:

  vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_64)           += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso64.so.dbg
  vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI)      += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdsox32.so.dbg
  vdso-install-$(CONFIG_X86_32)           += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg
  vdso-install-$(CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION)   += arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32.so.dbg

These files will be installed to $(MODLIB)/vdso/ with the .dbg suffix,
if exists, stripped away.

vdso-install-y can optionally take the second field after the colon
separator. This is needed because some architectures install a vdso
file as a different base name.

The following is a snippet from arch/arm64/Makefile.

  vdso-install-$(CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO)      += arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/vdso.so.dbg:vdso32.so

This will rename vdso.so.dbg to vdso32.so during installation. If such
architectures change their implementation so that the base names match,
this workaround will go away.
