objtool: Add support for alternatives at the end of a section

Now that the previous patch gave objtool the ability to read retpoline
alternatives, it shows a new warning:

  arch/x86/entry/entry_64.o: warning: objtool: .entry_trampoline: don't know how to handle alternatives at end of section

This is due to the JMP_NOSPEC in entry_SYSCALL_64_trampoline().

Previously, objtool ignored this situation because it wasn't needed, and
it would have required a bit of extra code.  Now that this case exists,
add proper support for it.
