RISC-V: Fix the VDSO symbol generaton for binutils-2.35+
We were relying on GNU ld's ability to re-link executable files in order to extract our VDSO symbols. This behavior was deemed a bug as of binutils-2.35 (specifically the binutils-gdb commit a87e1817a4 ("Have the linker fail if any attempt to link in an executable is made."), but as that has been backported to at least Debian's binutils-2.34 in may manifest in other places. The previous version of this was a bit of a mess: we were linking a static executable version of the VDSO, containing only a subset of the input symbols, which we then linked into the kernel. This worked, but certainly wasn't a supported path through the toolchain. Instead this new version parses the textual output of nm to produce a symbol table. Both rely on near-zero addresses being linkable, but as we rely on weak undefined symbols being linkable elsewhere I don't view this as a major issue.
