Josh Poimboeuf 3c6f9f77e6 objtool: Rework ibt and extricate from stack validation
Extricate ibt from validate_branch() so they can be executed (or ported)
independently from each other.

While shuffling code around, simplify and improve the ibt logic:

- Ignore an explicit list of known sections which reference functions
  for reasons other than indirect branching to them.  This helps prevent
  unnnecesary sealing.

- Warn on missing !ENDBR for all other sections, not just .data and
  .rodata.  This finds additional warnings, because there are sections
  other than .[ro]data which reference function pointers.  For example,
  the ksymtab sections which are used for exporting symbols.
