Enable the Arm Cortex-A53 errata mitigation on aarch64-unknown-none

Arm Cortex-A53 CPUs have an errata related to a specific sequence of instructions - errata number 843419 (https://documentation-service.arm.com/static/5fa29fddb209f547eebd361d). There is a mitigation that can be applied at link-time which detects the when sequence of instructions exists at a specific alignment. When detected, the linker re-writes those instructions and either changes an ADRP to an ADR, or bounces to a veneer to break the sequence.

The linker argument to enable the mitigation is "--fix-cortex-a53-843419", and this is supported by GNU ld and LLVM lld. The gcc argument to enable the flag is "-mfix-cortex-a53-843419".

Because the aarch64-unknown-none target uses rust-lld directly, this patch causes rustc to emit the "--fix-cortex-a53-843419" argument when calling the linker, just like aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc on Ubuntu 22.04 does.

Failure to enable this mitigation in the linker can cause the production of instruction sequences that do not execute correctly on Arm Cortex-A53.
