kbuild: rust: keep Rust objects out of Clang LTO with inline helpersgrafted

Under `CONFIG_LTO_CLANG` + `CONFIG_RUST_INLINE_HELPERS`, one may hit
`objtool` errors such as:

    vmlinux.o: error: objtool: _R..._3Gsp4boot+0xd6a:
    can't find jump dest instruction at .text._R..._3Gsp4boot+0x1dfd

The reason is that in such builds, the Clang invocation that compiles
the combined Rust plus helpers bitcode emits LLVM bitcode (again) --
the final code generation happens in the linker's LTO step, which the
`-mllvm` trap options passed to Clang do not reach.

This, in turn, means that unreachable traps are missing, and the
impossible paths do not merely fallthrough to the next symbol, but past
the end of their own section, since LTO builds place each function in
its own section.

Thus filter `CC_FLAGS_LTO` out of the Clang invocation, so that it always
emits machine code directly, with the traps in place.

+Code Example For Symmetric Key Cipher Operation
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+This code encrypts some data with AES-256-XTS.  For sake of example,
+all inputs are random bytes, the encryption is done in-place, and it's
+assumed the code is running in a context where it can sleep.

+

+    {
+            struct crypto_skcipher *tfm = NULL;

+            const size_t datasize = 512; /* data size in bytes */
+            struct scatterlist sg;
+            DECLARE_CRYPTO_WAIT(wait);
+            u8 iv[16];  /* AES-256-XTS takes a 16-byte IV */
+            u8 key[64]; /* AES-256-XTS takes a 64-byte key */

+             * In real-world use, a tfm and key are typically used for many
+             * encryption/decryption operations.  But in this example, we'll just do a
