objtool: Improve retpoline alternative handling

Currently objtool requires all retpolines to be:

  a) patched in with alternatives; and

  b) annotated with ANNOTATE_NOSPEC_ALTERNATIVE.

If you forget to do both of the above, objtool segfaults trying to
dereference a NULL 'insn->call_dest' pointer.

Avoid that situation and print a more helpful error message:

  quirks.o: warning: objtool: efi_delete_dummy_variable()+0x99: unsupported intra-function call
  quirks.o: warning: objtool: If this is a retpoline, please patch it in with alternatives and annotate it with ANNOTATE_NOSPEC_ALTERNATIVE.

Future improvements can be made to make objtool smarter with respect to
retpolines, but this is a good incremental improvement for now.
