When building protobuf we were seeing the assert failure:

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
This failure happens while writing out PLT entries, there is a check
"BFD_ASSERT (h->dynindx != -1)" to confirm all plt entries have dynamic
symbol attributes. This was failing for symbols that were
"forced_local" in previous linking code.
The fix adds logic to or1k_elf_adjust_dynamic_symbol to identify
"forced_local" symbols and exclude them from the the PLT.
