package/kvm-unit-tests: fix build on Arch Linux x86_64

Browse Source 
On x86_64, we use the host compiler instead of the target compiler to
build kvm-unit-tests, because it is built with -m32 and our target
compiler doesn't support that.

However, the compiler on Arch Linux is broken: it *always* builds with
-fstack-protector, even when -ffreestanding is passed. However, when
-fnostdlib is passed at link time (which is normally the case when
building with -ffreestanding), it is not linked with the stack-protector
library. This leads to a link time error:

/usr/bin/ld: x86/realmode.o: in function `print_serial_u32':
.../x86/realmode.c:104: undefined reference to `__stack_chk_fail'

Since the entire package is built with -ffreestanding, it doesn't
support stack-protector at all. Therefore, simply pass
-fno-stack-protector explicitly on x86_64 to work around the bug in Arch
Linux.
