arm64: efi: Enable BTI codegen and add PE/COFF annotation
UEFI heavily relies on so-called protocols, which are essentially
tables populated with pointers to executable code, and these are invoked
indirectly using BR or BLR instructions.
This makes the EFI execution context vulnerable to attacks on forward
edge control flow, and so it would help if we could enable hardware
enforcement (BTI) on CPUs that implement it.
So let's no longer disable BTI codegen for the EFI stub, and set the
newly introduced PE/COFF header flag when the kernel is built with BTI
landing pads.
