The ELF notes compiled in C were placed in a section with the wrong type
(SHT_PROGBITS instead of SHT_NOTE). Previously, sed was used on the
generated assembly to rewrite the section type. Instead, write the notes
in assembly which permits setting the correct section type directly.
While here, move inline assembly entry points out of C and into assembly
for aarch64, arm, and riscv.

On most architectures crt objects are compiled in a multiple-step process
so that sed can be run on the generated assembly. As the final step,
the C compiler generates an object file from the modified assembly output.
Currently this last step uses $CC with only $ACFLAGS. However, for other
uses in the tree, $ACFLAGS is meant to include assembly-specific compiler
flags that are in addition to $CFLAGS (see default .S.o rules
bsd.suffixes.mk). In particular, external toolchains may require
additional flags to select a non-default target which will be present
in CFLAGS but not ACFLAGS. To support this while still mitigating the
issue with CFLAGS described in r234502, include a modified CFLAGS that
excludes "-g" when assembling the modified assembly files.
Note that normally an assembler ($AS) is used to assemble .s flags to
object files (see bsd.suffixes.mk). However, llvm-based toolchains do
not currently have a stand-alone assembler.

RISC-V is a new ISA designed to support computer research and education, and
is now become a standard open architecture for industry implementations.
This is a minimal set of changes required to run 'make kernel-toolchain'
using external (GNU) toolchain.
