cmd/link: delete stale deadcode reference

Back when the linker did code generation after dead code elimination,
it had to know that references to runtime.read_tls_fallback could be
generated at code generation time (and never appear before that). Now
that code generation is done by the compiler, the references to
runtime.read_tls_fallback are obvious in the relocations, so the
linker no longer needs special knowledge of this symbol.
