[PATCH v1] kbuild: Add KBUILD_VMLINUX_LIBS_PRELINK

[Tiezhu Yang]

In order to only link libstub to the final vmlinux, it can not use the
current KBUILD_VMLINUX_LIBS, just add KBUILD_VMLINUX_LIBS_PRELINK. This
is preparation for later patch, no functionality change.

There is a long discussion in the previous patch:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250928085506.4471-1-yangtiezhu@loongson.cn/

This version is based on 6.18-rc6, split the generic parts out
into a separate patch to avoid merge conflicts, the other parts
will send out after the merge window.
