kpatch-build: support CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN

Support CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN with ld.lld --lto-obj-path option.

With CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN, .o files are LLVM IR binary, so CDO doesn't
work on .o file. To solve this issue, we CDO the thinlto files generated
by the --lto-obj-path option. Clang LTO generates the thinlto files
after cross file inline, so they are good candidates for CDO. See [1] for
more discussions about this.

To achieve this, we need:

  1. kpatch-build to update kernel Makefile(s) so it generates thinlto
     files;
  2. kpatch-build and kpatch-cc to save the thinlto file properly;
  3. kpatch-build to feed these thinlto files to CDO;
  4. The user need to supply vmlinux.o, from which we generate the symtab
     file. We need this because GLOBAL symbols may be marked as LOCAL in
     LTO vmlinux;
