vmlinux.lds.h: Add .gnu.version* to COMMON_DISCARDS
For vmlinux linking, no architecture uses the .gnu.version* sections, so remove it via the COMMON_DISCARDS macro in preparation for adding --orphan-handling=warn more widely. This is a work-around for what appears to be a bug[1] in ld.bfd which warns for this synthetic section even when none is found in input objects, and even when no section is emitted for an output object[2].
