Fangrui Song 2718654c54 [MC] Support .cfi_label ...

GNU assembler 2.26 introduced the .cfi_label directive. It does not
expand to any CFI instructions, but defines a label in
.eh_frame/.debug_frame, which can be used by runtime patching code to
locate the FDE. .cfi_label is not allowed for CIE's initial
instructions, and can therefore be used to force the next instruction to
be placed in a FDE instead of a CIE.

In glibc since 2018, sysdeps/riscv/start.S utilizes .cfi_label to force
DW_CFA_undefined to be placed in a FDE. arc/csky/loongarch ports have
copied this use.
```
.cfi_startproc
// DW_CFA_undefined is allowed for CIE's initial instructions.
// Without .cfi_label, gas would place DW_CFA_undefined in a CIE.
.cfi_label .Ldummy
.cfi_undefined ra
.cfi_endproc
```

No CFI instruction is associated with .cfi_label, so the `case
MCCFIInstruction::OpLabel:` code in BOLT is unreachable and onlt to make
-Wswitch happy.
