vmlinux.lds: Exclude .text.startup and .text.exit from TEXT_MAIN

An ftrace warning was reported in ftrace_init_ool_stub():

   WARNING: arch/powerpc/kernel/trace/ftrace.c:234 at ftrace_init_ool_stub+0x188/0x3f4, CPU#0: swapper/0

The problem is that the linker script is placing .text.startup in .text
rather than in .init.text, due to an inadvertent match of the TEXT_MAIN
'.text.[0-9a-zA-Z_]*' pattern.

This bug existed for some configurations before, but is only now coming
to light due to the TEXT_MAIN macro unification in commit 1ba9f8979426
("vmlinux.lds: Unify TEXT_MAIN, DATA_MAIN, and related macros").

The .text.startup section consists of constructors which are used by
KASAN, KCSAN, and GCOV.  The constructors are only called during boot,
so .text.startup is supposed to match the INIT_TEXT pattern so it can be
placed in .init.text and freed after init.  But since INIT_TEXT comes
*after* TEXT_MAIN in the linker script, TEXT_MAIN needs to manually
exclude .text.startup.

Update TEXT_MAIN to exclude .text.startup (and its .text.startup.*
variant from -ffunction-sections), along with .text.exit and
.text.exit.* which should match EXIT_TEXT.

Specifically, use a series of more specific glob patterns to match
generic .text.* sections (for -ffunction-sections) while explicitly
excluding .text.startup[.*] and .text.exit[.*].

Also update INIT_TEXT and EXIT_TEXT to explicitly match their
-ffunction-sections variants (.text.startup.* and .text.exit.*).

Fixes: 1ba9f8979426 ("vmlinux.lds: Unify TEXT_MAIN, DATA_MAIN, and related macros")
