build: support building with Link Time Optimizations

Add plumbing for building U-Boot with Link Time Optimizations.

When building with LTO, $(PLATFORM_LIBS) has to be in --whole-archive /
--no-whole-archive group, otherwise some functions declared in assembly
may not be resolved and linking may fail.

Note: clang may throw away linker list symbols it thinks are unused when
compiling with LTO. To force these symbols to be included, we refer to
them via the __ADDRESSABLE macro in a C file generated from compiled
built-in.o files before linking.
