Josh Poimboeuf 753da4179d objtool: Remove --lto and --vmlinux in favor of --link

The '--lto' option is a confusing way of telling objtool to do stack
validation despite it being a linked object.  It's no longer needed now
that an explicit '--stackval' option exists.  The '--vmlinux' option is
also redundant.

Remove both options in favor of a straightforward '--link' option which
identifies a linked object.

Also, implicitly set '--link' with a warning if the user forgets to do
so and we can tell that it's a linked object.  This makes it easier for
manual vmlinux runs.
