x86/EFI: sanitize DLL characteristics in binary
In GNU ld --disable-reloc-section implies --disable-dynamicbase (and also --disable-high-entropy-va, just fyi). Therefore to yield functionally identical binaries independent of whether mkreloc needs to come into play, add --dynamicbase as well. GNU ld further defaults to --high-entropy-va (along with --dynamicbase and --nxcompat) unless "Cygwin-like". This seems wrong to me; that default should be dependent upon "MinGW-like" instead; for the purpose of building EFI binaries with a PE32+-capable ELF linker neither "Cygwin-like" nor "MinGW-like" ought to be true. We certainly don't mean to have this bit set in the DLL characteristics, so suppress its setting. Sadly while --high-entropy-va is supported by GNU ld 2.25, --disable-high-entropy-va was introduced only in 2.36. Luckily the defaulting to --high-entropy-va was also only introduced in 2.36. Plus --disable-reloc-section was introduced precisely there, too. Hence leverage the probing we do as to base relocation generation, to also determine whether to pass --disable-high-entropy-va.
