[PATCH v2] RISC-V: build: Allow LTO to be selected

[Wende Tan]

Allow LTO to be selected for RISC-V, only when LLD >= 14, since there is an
issue [1] in prior LLD versions that prevents LLD to generate proper
machine code for RISC-V when writing `nop`s.

I have tested enabling LTO for `defconfig`. The LLD took ~2m21s and ~3GiB
on our Intel Xeon Gold 6140 server and produced an 18MiB Image. The image
can boot to shell using an archriscv rootfs on QEMU.

I have also tested it for `allyesconfig` without COMPILE_TEST, FTRACE,
KASAN, and GCOV. The LLD took ~7h03m and ~335GiB on the server,
successfully producing a 1.7GiB Image. Unfortunately, we cannot boot this
image because the `create_kernel_page_table()` -> `alloc_pmd_early()` ->
`BUG_ON()` logic limits the image to be < 1GiB. Maybe we can fix it in a
separate patch further.

v2:
- Some textual changes suggested by Nick.
- Drop the changes to `arch/riscv/Makefile`, since the LLVM issue is filed
  and resolved.
- Drop the unnecessary changes to `arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/Makefile`.
