[release-branch.go1.24] cmd/link: fix cgo on riscv64 when building with gcc-15
It's not currently possible to build cgo programs that are partially
compiled with gcc-15 on riscv64 using the internal linker. There are
two reasons for this.
1. When gcc-15 compiles _cgo_export.c, which contains no actual code,
for a riscv64 target, it emits a label in the .text section called
.Letext0. This label is referred to by another section, .debug_line,
and an entry is generated in the symbol table for it. The Go linker
panics when processing the .Letext0 symbol in _cgo_export.o, as it
occurs in an empty section.
2. GCC-15 is generating additional debug symbols with the .LVUS
prefix, e.g., .LVUS33, that need to be ignored.
We fix the issue by removing the check in
cmd/link/internal/loader/loader.go that panics if we encounter a
symbol in an empty section (the comments preceding this check suggest
it's safe to remove it) and by adding .LVUS to the list of symbol
prefixes to ignore.
