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.
