support/scripts/check-bin-arch: ignore symbolic links

Since commit da32b49f0091ee9dfb613e0f00973bf6893bfa84
("instrumentation: extend packages-file-list.txt with symlinks and
directories"), the packages-file-list.txt also contains symbolic
links. Therefore, check-bin-arch is now also checking symbolic links.

However, symbolic links in $(TARGET_DIR) can have absolute path as
targets, such as:

$ ls -l output/target/sbin/ifdown
lrwxrwxrwx 1 thomas thomas 10 Sep  3 15:55 output/target/sbin/ifdown -> /sbin/ifup

Therefore, we are now potentially checking a host binary, which
obviously makes check-bin-arch fail.

This commit changes check-bin-arch to ignore symbolic links. Indeed,
we have two cases:

 - The symbolic link really points to something that will in the
   rootfs (such as /sbin/ifup above). In this case, /sbin/ifup will be
   checked separately by check-bin-arch.

 - The symbolic link doesn't point to something that will be in the
   rootfs, and that is not a problem from the perspective of
   check-bin-arch, which checks the architecture of target binaries.
