cmd/link: keep go.buildid alive on AIX external linking
As we use relative addressing for text symbols in functab, it is
important that the offsets we computed stay unchanged by the
external linker, i.e. all symbols in Textp should not be removed
by the external linker. Most of them are actually referenced (our
deadcode pass ensures that), except go.buildid which is generated
late and not used by the program. Keep it alive.
Should fix AIX builder.
