csu: Avoid weak ref for __ehdr_start in static PIE
All linkers support __ehdr_start that support static PIE linking,
so there is no need to check for its presence via a weak reference.

This avoids a RELATIVE relocation in static PIE startup code on some
targets.

With non-PIE static linking the weak ref check is kept in case the
linker does not support __ehdr_start.
