[PATCH 2.41] aarch64: Do not link conform tests with -Wl,-z,force-bti (bug 33601)

If the toolchain does not default to generate BTI markers in GCC,
the main program for conform runtime tests will not have the
BTI marker that -Wl,-z,force-bti requires. Without -Wl,-z,force-bti,
the link editor will not tell the dynamic linker to enable BTI,
and the missing BTI marker is harmless.
