Currently, '--orphan-handling=warn' is spread out across four different architectures in their respective Makefiles, which makes it a little unruly to deal with in case it needs to be disabled for a specific linker version (in this case, ld.lld 10.0.1). To make it easier to control this, hoist this warning into Kconfig and the main Makefile so that disabling it is simpler, as the warning will only be enabled in a couple places (main Makefile and a couple of compressed boot folders that blow away LDFLAGS_vmlinx) and making it conditional is easier due to Kconfig syntax. One small additional benefit of this is saving a call to ld-option on incremental builds because we will have already evaluated it for CONFIG_LD_ORPHAN_WARN. To keep the list of supported architectures the same, introduce CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_LD_ORPHAN_WARN, which an architecture can select to gain this automatically after all of the sections are specified and size asserted. A special thanks to Kees Cook for the help text on this config.
